Shaping the Future of Leadership at Temple University
Another amazing semester of teaching master’s level students has come to a close, and I can’t help but reflect on the energy, growth, and impact of this experience. Guiding students as they learn to lead diverse teams is not just a job—it’s my passion.
Temple University is an extraordinary place to teach and learn. With its reputation for academic excellence and its richly diverse community—including students from all 50 states and over 130 countries—it’s the ideal environment to explore the complexities of leadership. These are the kinds of spaces where leaders are made: where perspectives are challenged, collaboration is celebrated, and innovation thrives.
This semester, we dove into what it means to lead authentically in a world where diversity and inclusion aren’t just buzzwords—they’re necessities. From building trust to navigating conflict and inspiring teams, the conversations were dynamic, the insights were powerful, and the growth was evident.
As a professor, there’s no greater joy than seeing the lightbulb moments when students connect theory to practice, or when they step outside their comfort zones to think bigger. It’s a privilege to play a role in their journey as they prepare to make an impact not just in their careers, but in the world.
If you’re seeking a place to grow as a leader, Temple University offers more than an education—it offers a transformative experience. It’s where ideas meet action, and where your potential can truly soar.
Here’s to leadership, lifelong learning, and making a difference—together. 🦉
