The task of leadership is not to put greatness into people, but to elicit it, for the greatness is there already.
John Buchan
When individuals graduate from one of our Administrative Leadership Programs they become a member of a University-wide leadership network. The Leadership Development Center supports members of UVa’s three leadership networks as communities of decision-makers coming together from across the University to:
  • reflect on leadership values
  • to share experiences and insight
  • to learn about and affect strategic issues, and
  • to build relationships.

Programs and services for members of our leadership networks include:


Network Conferences:
  • In support of our leadership networks, conferences are held that focus on important aspects of individual and organizational development. Each year the Exceptional Assistants’ Network hosts a large conference for network and non-network members featuring guest speakers and facilitated break-out sessions on issues relevant to administrative support staff.
