Library Management Skills Institute II: The Organization

The Library Management Skills Institute II: The Organization, offered by the ARL Academy in partnership with DeEtta Jones and Associates, and co-hosted by Indiana University Bloomington Libraries, will take place July 23–25, 2019 at Indiana University Bloomington Libraries in room E159, Hazelbaker Hall. The three-day workshop is for supervisors, department heads, coordinators, team and project leaders, and change agents. This learning experience is designed using Peter Senge’s renowned Learning Organization as the framework and participants will be introduced to each of the five disciplines. Participants will learn through case studies, personal reflection, practical application tools, and group discussions.

Participants will:

• Have a sophisticated understanding of organizational learning and how the associated practices positively impact inclusion, organizational health, positioning, and growth.
• Practice engaging colleagues in processes that clarify vision and create momentum.
• Have practical tools for engaging change in their organizations.
