MLA/DLA2015 Conference

Author Name: Elizabeth Hulett
Library System: Western Maryland Regional Library

Top 3 things learned:

  • There are several different ways styles of leadership and many of them overlap.
  • Leaders establish the positive conditions of wellness, recognition, empowerment and significance.
  • Risk taking is a part of leadership.

How to implement: 
Every time you try an new initiative you are taking a risk, but you should always be willing to try. I see WMRL's new Strategic Plan as an opportunity to take some risks with new initiatives.

Additional learning: 
Behind the Executive Door by Karol Wasylyshyn is a book that was recommended in one of the programs I attended which I plan to read.
