The Human Resource Management Division is sponsoring a PDW entitled Being a Department Head: Learning from Others on Saturday, August 2, from 12:30-4:00. The session features seasoned administrators who will facilitate discussion on issues like dealing with power, politics and cultural change, evaluating and mentoring faculty, dealing with low performing employees, recruiting and maintaining a diverse faculty and managing time and conflict. Registration is open to those who are currently serving as chairs/heads or individuals who are slated to become chairs/heads in the near future. This is the third offering of this PDW and each time it has been met with rave reviews.
