This training is ideal for individuals who are considering—or who have recently accepted—an interim leadership role at their institution. Those who work closely with such leaders, such as their supervisor or a human resources professional tasked with hiring and onboarding interim leaders, will also benefit from the content shared.

1:00 – 3:00 p.m. Eastern

During this two-hour virtual training, Dr. Brian Williams, Chief of Staff at Roger Williams University, will lead us as we explore:

• Discussion of choices leaders face in creating an interim role 
• Succession planning models and best practices 
• Overview of steps schools should consider before creating an interim role 

• Is this a career risk or opportunity?
• What should be in place before you say “yes”?
• When should you raise your hand—and when should you decline?

• Once you accept an interim role, good planning is the key to a successful engagement. The expectations placed on an interim can vary greatly. How can you meet those expectations? What is your next career move after your interim term ends? From setting solid goals and expectations at the outset to devising a realistic transition strategy early on, we will discuss the critical components of a successful interim plan.
