Everyone at Metropolitan State University of Denver is a leader, whether you supervise a team or department, chair a committee or inspire your peers and colleagues. Leveraging the unique strengths and perspectives of every individual helps the University solve problems, make decisions and shape our future. Especially now, we are experiencing many changes and demands within our institution, throughout our communities and across the globe. Strong leadership up, down and across MSU Denver will unite us and carry us through these challenging times.

To support all leaders across MSU Denver, the Office of Learning and Development introduces the new Leadership Development SharePoint site. The site is open to anyone with MSU Denver login credentials and includes sections on Remote Work, Emotional Intelligence and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, among others, with additional topics in development. You will also find the Leadership Library with articles and scholarship discussing timely and relevant topics as well as an Activity and Exercise Library to facilitate individual and team development. The site will be updated regularly with the latest news, tools and resources you need to grow in your leadership at MSU Denver.

Here are six resources you can find on the new Leadership Development SharePoint site:

1. TED Talk by Vern? Myers: How to overcome our biases? Walk boldly toward them
2. Harvard Business Review article: Remote Managers Are Having Trust Issues
3. LinkedIn Learning Collection: Leadership Excellence (includes the course Building Trust)
