SULead continues to build momentum with another engaging session, featuring Dr. Christy Weer, dean of the Perdue School of Business, who led an interactive discussion on “Let’s Talk People,” equipping the cohort with essential interpersonal skills to strengthen communication, collaboration and relationship-building, along with valuable one-on-one time that deepened their understanding of working effectively with others.

In the afternoon, Jason Curtin, Vice President of Advancement & Executive Director, SU Foundation, provided an overview of his division, highlighting the critical role they play within the university. 

Next week, we will welcome Interim Provost Dr. Jessica Clark & Associate Vice President of Enrollment, Allen Koehlerwho will provide overviews of their divisions and Dr. Jacques Koko, Professor and Chair of Conflict and Dispute Resolution, who will conduct a session on the nature and sources of conflict along with techniques for resolution.
