|||||||||||
The AIA, in partnership
with Georgetown University, is now accepting applications for the 2003 AIA
Leadership Institute. Applications are encouraged from accomplished men
and women members wishing to increase their effectiveness and personal involvement
as leaders in their communities. Twenty-five candidates will be accepted
to attend an intensive and experiential three-day program October 8–11,
held on the main campus of Georgetown University in Washington, D. C. Modeled
after the 1997 AIA Leadership Institute, this program will cover the role
of vision and mission in leadership, demographic and economic changes that
will affect the political environment, and the architect’s role as
community leader. Applications are due September
10.
Purpose From October 8–11, a select group of 25 AIA members will discuss the meaning of leader/architect, identify and define their own leadership roles, and apply what they learn to elevate the public perception of architects. Each participant will have the opportunity to assess his or her leadership skills and experience, discuss the assessment with faculty skilled in executive coaching, and develop an individual plan to achieve leadership goals. Through these activities, the participants will concentrate on identifying their special skills and talents, how those skills and talents can benefit the community and the profession, and the steps the participants can follow to make their leadership goals a reality. Who should attend How to apply Applicants must oversee the collection and mailing of all materials. Only applications that are completed will be accepted. Each applicant must include two letters of reference. One letter of reference must be from a supporter outside the applicant’s firm. Applications will be reviewed by representatives from the AIA and Georgetown University. Each letter of reference must include: Applicants must provide: General information Accommodations: Lodging and some meals will be at the Georgetown University Conference Center on the university campus.
