We use the CliftonStrengths framework\, to empower participants to both develop their talents and customize the content based on those talents.

Yet\, we often waste our energy working on things that aren’t productive – or in ways that are productive. That leaves you feeling exhausted at work and at home. In this first week\, we’ll talk about how to better protect your energy\, so you can use it for the things that are most important to you.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Discovering your authentic leadership style\nThe greatest leaders aren’t good at everything. They focus their energy on their strengths and surround themselves with folks who excel in other areas. You’ll discover your own authentic leadership style\, one that stems from your unique talents. Once you know who you are as a leader\, you can better manage your energy and prioritize your time.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Understanding your Strengths\nYour talents impact how you interact with the world. When you use your talents productively\, they can drive you and your team to new levels of success. But what most people don’t know is your talents can just as easily show up as weaknesses. You’ll learn how to better manage your talents\, so your more effective and productive.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n coaching your team\n\nEmployees want a coach. Developing a system to consistently coach your team is one of the most effective things you can do as a supervisor. Coaching improves team performance and productivity. You’ll learn how to coach your team\, so you can help them focus their energy on their talents and give them opportunities for development.\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Stress & Self-Care\nSupervisors experience more stress than the folks they supervise. Left unchecked\, it will negatively impact how you show up as a supervisor. Self-care isn’t just a buzzword\, it’s crucial for your success and wellbeing. You’ll learn the real impact of stress and how to develop a daily self-care practice that will allow you to be more effective.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Performance Management\n\nOne of the most challenging parts of a supervisor’s job is managing your team’s performance. Unfortunately\, managing performance can be stressful when you don’t have an effective system. You’ll learn how to set clear expectations and hold folks accountable\, whether it’s celebrating successes or dealing with failure.\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n managing change\nOne of the things we hear from everyone is “there’s been a lot of change here.” Change is inevitable\, and often stressful. Throughout the Institute\, you’ll discover ways you and your team can improve. This week\, you’ll learn to roll out those changes in a way that minimizes stress to you and your team and increases your chance of success.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n implementing change\n\nThe last week of the Institute is focused on action.

This virtual institute will curate opportunities for critical reflection and provide tools for professional practice related to examining power and privilege. \nFor this year’s institute we are wrestling with how scholarship and practice of masculinities is being enacted within higher education environments. In our communities we will find ourselves upholding oppressive norms and at other times disrupting these harmful notions of scholarship and practice. How can we hold ourselves accountable for our actions and supporting other well-being of all? Through coalition building\, we can sort through the contradictions and create new systems of accountability to foster change in academia and beyond. Participants will leave this institute gaining  \n\nKnowledge on new masculinities scholarship not often highlighted in the academy.\nCritical practitioner insights that will expand ways to make change working within men and masculinities programs and events on college campuses. \nConnections through interactive conversations to build coalitions of support across our higher education experiences\n\nKeynote Speaker: Dr. Quortne R. Hutchings\nDr. Hutchings keynote will focus on envisioning masculinities scholarship and practice that expands and disrupts binary normative assumptions within gender and sexualities studies in Higher Education and Student Affairs (HESA) research and practice. \nQuortne R. Hutchings (they\, them) is a first-generation college graduate\, proud Ronald E. McNair scholar alum\, and assistant professor in higher education at Northern Illinois University.

Their teaching centers change and evolve of colleges and universities to meet their most marginalized communities’ needs through transformative educational and engagement practices. \nFirst Session of Educational Presentations Options  \nExploring the Motivations of Latino men who Pursue Higher Education presented by Dr. Lazaro Camacho\, Jr. \nThis session will explore the question\, “In what ways are Latino men allowed to exist in relation to postsecondary education?” The presentation will ask attendees to consider the postsecondary education motivations of Latino men from a place of agency and liberation. Using key takeaways from two studies that examined the gendered experiences of undergraduate and graduate Latino men students\, this presentation will encourage the attendees to reimagine Latino men students as change agents \nMentoring Masculinities presented by Cristian Noriega \nThe presentation will identify mentorship as a tool to disrupt restrictive and toxic masculinity ideologies within a higher education context. Using examples from a Mxn of Color Mentorship Program\, this presentation will illustrate the potential of such programs to re-define healthier and liberatory forms of masculinity. A small discussion section will be included for practitioners to talk through similar programs or how to get started in creating a similar program in their respective institutions.  \nTurning a New Page: Insights from a Black Men’s Book Club Presented by Kevin Pajaro-Mariñez \nThis session explores the intellectual and personal process of developing a community-based Black men’s book club called the Black Men’s Reflection Group (BMRG). The BMRG represents an intersectional approach that demonstrates how vulnerability and communal healing through dialogue informs equitable and inclusive practices for cultivating expansive masculinities. This presentation encourages attendees to think critically about how the BMRG model can position men across intersections of marginalization and perspectives to meaningfully contend with their gender socialization.  \nSecond Session of Educational Presentations Options  \nUnveiling Vulnerability and Redefining Masculinity in Black Men presented by Quashon Bunch \nThis presentation delves into the critical role of artistic expression in exploring and redefining Black masculinity. It highlights how storytelling\, in various artistic forms\, serves as a powerful tool for unveiling vulnerability\, breaking down traditional stereotypes\, and fostering deeper self-awareness amongst Black Male college students. By examining the intersection of creativity\, culture\, and personal growth\, the presentation underscores how Black men use art to navigate their identities\, challenge societal norms\, and contribute to broader cultural dialogues connected to their emotions.  \nBeyond the Brother Code: Black Masculinities\, Black Feminism\, and the Agency of Black Men in Graduate Engineering Programs presented by Dr. Joshua Wallace \nIn this session\, Dr. Wallace will present on utilizing Black feminist theoretical frameworks to disrupt oppressive norms in Black masculinities. Specifically\, he will share findings from my recent work which explores how agency is exerted beyond hegemonic masculinities in engineering and illuminated the influences of a discipline’s culture on masculine thinking and being. Moreover\, this study\, guided by Black feminism\, epistemologically and theoretically\, moves Black masculinities scholarship and practice toward an emphasis on divesting from patriarchy. \nMuslim Men in Higher Education and Masculinities: Navigating Challenges and Redefining Narratives presented by Dr. Faran Saeed \nThis session will explore the challenges Muslim men face in higher education\, focusing on the intersection of religion\, race\, and gender. We will discuss the impact of Islamophobia\, stereotypes\, and underrepresentation\, along with the mental health implications. Through reflection and dialogue\, the session will offer strategies for challenging harmful narratives\, promoting well-being\, and supporting Muslim men’s leadership and inclusion on campus. \nPanel Discussion \nDisrupting Oppressive Masculinities: A Jotería Microaffirmation Approach with Panelists Dr. Ángel de Jesus González\, Dr. Omi Salas- SantaCruz\, & Dr Sergio A.

This collaborative effort of our three Communities of Practice is positioned to benefit practitioners and scholars alike\, creating a space to share new knowledge frequently left on the shelf. Join Dr. Lauren N. Irwin\, an assistant professor of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies at the University of Tennessee\, Knoxville\, as she presents two research studies that aim to better understand how racial meanings\, or racialization\, shape college student leadership education efforts. \nResearch Summary: \nDissertation Title: Racialization and Whiteness in College Student Leadership Education Efforts \nBrief Summary: This dissertation comprises two studies that aim to better understand how racial meanings\, or racialization\, shape college student leadership education efforts. Colleges shape—and are shaped by—dominant beliefs about race and leadership. Colleges have a longstanding commitment to student leadership development. As such\, many colleges rely on leadership education programs (LEPs) to develop students’ leadership abilities. \nResearch asserts that colleges allocate resources based on their priorities. However\, there is little scholarship about how LEPs are resourced and how campus priorities shape LEPs’ resources. Further\, scholars have critiqued leadership education’s failure to disrupt racism and whiteness. The frameworks scholars have developed to foster diversity\, equity\, inclusion\, and social justice (DEISJ) in LEP practice neglect organizational considerations in favor of individual and local practices. \nThese studies investigate how different campuses racialize LEPs and their resources. The first study examined how LEPs replicate and/or resist whiteness. Findings demonstrated that LEPs’ integration of DEISJ varied\, despite DEISJ commitments across campuses. These varied commitments stemmed from leadership educators’ beliefs about whiteness\, social justice\, and leadership. Organizational and individual beliefs about leadership and LEP practice shaped how whiteness manifested across LEPs. The second study examined how campus resource allocation shaped LEP practice and considered how access to resources was racialized. Findings demonstrated that DEISJ was a stated priority across campuses while leadership was not. Further\, colleges often allocated resources in ways that deviated from their stated DEISJ commitments and furthered inequities. \nThis scholarship extends research and practice in several ways. To date\, no studies have used Ray’s (2019) theory of racialized organizations to study student affairs contexts or LEPs. Further\, this dissertation addressed a lack of empirical studies of DEISJ efforts in student affairs LEPs. Disproportionately\, the critical and social justice-oriented leadership education scholarship is conceptual and aspirational\, draws on authors’ experiences at single institutions\, and has primarily centered academic leadership education contexts. In short\, there is a lack of knowledge about how leadership educators in diverse campus and LEP contexts replicate and/or reinforce whiteness. Thus\, findings offer vital insights into practice to lift up transformative possibilities. \nRegistration Fees: \nComplimentary for ACPA Individual Members \n$10 for ACPA Chapter Only Members \n$10 for Non-Members URL:https://myacpa.org/event/growing-knowelege-series-webinar-racialization-and-whiteness-in-college-student-leadership-education-efforts/ LOCATION:Online CATEGORIES:Graduate Students & New Professionals Community of Practice,Mid-Level Community of Practice,Senior Level Community of Practice,Virtual ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://myacpa.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/20241013_213933_0000.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20241022T150000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20241022T160000 DTSTAMP:20260424T050440 CREATED:20241011T204936Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241011T211238Z UID:16621-1729609200-1729612800@myacpa.org SUMMARY:Mid-Level Morsel's Community Conversation: Pre-Election DESCRIPTION:MLCoP is excited to continue our professional development series #MidLevelMorsels\, where you can get bite-sized PD opportunities with fellow Mid-Level practitioners.
