Course Description

Before we lead others, we must first learn to effectively lead ourselves. For most of us, our personal values guide how we feel and act day-to-day. The four principles of Values-Based Leadership help us lean into our values while remaining curious and open to the values and experiences of others.

Through self-reflection, a balanced perspective, true self-confidence, and genuine humility, we can grow our leadership from any position. This is an excellent course for people at all levels in their leadership journey.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Become familiar with the City of Madison's Leadership Framework
  2. Reflect on your own values and how these can help guide you in your daily leadership work
  3. Begin to practice the Values-Based Leadership Framework

Note: A significant part of this course is spent in small group discussion in Zoom breakout rooms. You will also need access to the Fillable Learner Workbook during the course. Using a computer, tablet, or at minimum a smartphone is recommended. Phone-only participation is discouraged because it will be difficult to access course materials and interact with others in your small group.

If you are planning to broadcast the course in a conference room for a group, contact the instructor ahead of time for special instructions and activity modifications.
