Leadership Essentials from ASPIRE

Leadership Essentials 2024 is a six-month leadership development program for emerging leaders offered through Loyola University Maryland, in collaboration with Leadership Howard County. From December 2023 – June 2024, a diverse cohort of approximately 25 individuals from the private, public, and nonprofit sectors will strengthen their leadership skills through full-day sessions, one-on-one coaching, and a community service project. 

Core Components

Skill-building Sessions: The full cohort will meet 1-2 times/month for sessions on leadership topics such as self-awareness, communication skills, high performing teams, conflict management, and more. Sessions are facilitated by subject matter experts.

Leadership Coaching: Participants will meet one-on-one with a leadership coach twice/month to determine personal and professional goals, explore challenges at work, and create an action plan. Coaches will help participants develop critical thinking skills, strengthen relationships, and manage conflict.

Community Impact Projects: Teams from the cohort will support a local nonprofit and further develop their teamwork, project management, and communication skills.
