The Leadership for Institutional Change initiative is a national leadership development initiative sponsored by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. Rutgers is one of more than 100 colleges and universities exploring ways to enhance leadership capacities within higher education as a part of this project. Efforts are under way at each of these campuses to foster dialogue among faculty and staff who are interested in leadership development issues. Rutgers, along with nine other invited institutions, formed the Mid-Atlantic Consortium, ten institutions with a regional bond and a history of working together on highly collaborative, inter-institutional projects. Not linked by state lines or types of institutions, the structure of the consortium encourages member institutions to stretch beyond the relationships each might have normally.
The Center was asked to assume the leadership role for Rutgers' participation in this national initiative. Membership in this consortium- and the development funding afforded by our participation- has proved to be a very helpful vehicle in our efforts to heighten collaboration within Rutgers on a number of leadership issues including the Academic Leadership Program and Research on Faculty Community Engagement. The consortium has made plans to continue its work beyond the activities funded by Kellogg.
