About LEAD: The Faculty Version

LEAD: The Faculty Version is a year-long leadership development program for faculty.


About the LEAD (Faculty) Program

The LEAD (Leadership, Enhancement, Activities & Development) Program is a year-long leadership development program at the University of West Florida sponsored by the Office of the Provost. The Faculty program involves up to 10 full-time faculty members in a series of interactive workshops, round-table discussions, and strategy-building sessions. The goals are to help participants:

  • further develop their leadership skills;
  • learn more about issues that affect UWF and higher education overall;
  • build relationships with people across campus;
  • develop strategies to help them flourish as leaders and team members.

The program is led by Dr. Athena du Pré, Distinguished University Professor. 

Nominations for LEAD: The Faculty Version

For LEAD: The Faculty Version, there is no formal application process. Instead, Deans are asked to nominate faculty and submit those names to the Provost. The Provost will make the final decision on whom to invite to the program. 

There is no LEAD Faculty class for 2023-2024.
