The Bradley Leadership Educator In Residence (LEIR) program is a once-a-semester program in which Tulane hosts a scholar-practitioner of leadership theory and behavior to conduct leadership training, education, and development for the Tulane community. This program's design is grounded in the collective creation of a leadership learning curriculum filled with opportunities from across campus through experiential learning. Leadership learning is inherently interdisciplinary in practice and the Leadership Educator in residence program allows students, faculty, and staff with a hands-on learning opportunity to develop their capacity to become ethical and effective agents of change.
The purpose of this program is as follows:
- To bring a interdisciplinary cohort of educators to Tulane University
- To create opportunities to engage with distinct voices and leadership philosophies
- To promote a campus culture where leadership is valued
This program is typically a week long and offers a variety of ways to engage with the practitioner's expertise and wisdom. These could include: workshops for students, faculty, staff, or alumni; guest speaker in a class; consultative work with established teams; one-on-one mentoring sessions; and/or lunch and learn conversations.
The Leadership Educator in Residence Program is made possible by the generosity of Millie Pilié Bradley (NC '73; MBA '75) and R. Allan Bradley Jr. (MBA '75).
