A series of five sessions led by Saint Mary's College Leadership Center staff for members of the community who want to take a short-term project from start to finish begins tomorrow night. The sessions, which will be spread over a two month period, are the practical follow-up to the first leadership series offered by the Leadership Center last September, which focused on how to expand the capacities of people who wanted to lead locally, and identified roadblocks to success and ways to work more collaboratively. Those who did not attend the September session will be brought up to speed.
The Town of Moraga, Lamorinda Presents, and Moraga Citizens Network are also supporting the program. Session topics include, "Gaining input from a wide diversity of stakeholders and creating transformative scenarios that lead to win/win situations" and "Completing the process, noticing the wins and making future recommendations."
"Participants will complete something, and will own the skills practiced over the two months," says Edy Schwartz of Lamorinda Presents. If people do not come with their own undertaking, they will sit in on different projects, the objective being to internalize a change-making process that's inclusive and constructive.
The first meeting is at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 30 in the Serbian Cultural Center, 1700 School Street, Moraga. A $20 donation for the series would be appreciated. For information about the Saint Mary's College Leadership Center, visit http://www.stmarys-ca.edu/leadership-center/about-the-center.
