The CSU New Department Chairs Workshop is an introduction to interpersonal skills and tools needed to effectively manage and lead in an academic setting. The format is a mix of interactive presentations and panel discussions.

Our venue is the Karl Anatol Center (Academic Services-110), on the south end of campus near the Seventh Street entrance.

The workshop, which will run from 10 a.m. - 4 p.m., will feature presentations on:

Transitioning into the department chair role,
Understanding the CFA contract, and
A panel of experienced chairs from around the CSU discussing how they would deal with some particularly challenging issues.

As always, there will be plenty of time for new chairs to ask questions and share their perspectives.
