Roger Williams University Leadership Academy Initiative
This document outlines 'The Retain-Grow-Advance Leadership Academy,' a President's Initiative designed to build leadership capacity and enhance representation within leadership teams, with a specific focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion. The program aims to retain, develop, and advance employees, particularly from underrepresented backgrounds, by focusing on three areas of development: technical skills, socioemotional capacity, and adopting a growth mindset. The initiative seeks to establish talent development as a signature program, demonstrate measurable results in employee support and advancement, and cultivate inclusive leadership practices.
