The Leadership Forum is an effort to bring the whole organization together and talk about topics that are important to the management team. This past year has been challenging, and we thank everyone for their flexibility, dedication and service. After more than 500 days working through the pandemic, UCLA Administration is planning to reopen the campus, which will bring new opportunities and challenges in the workplace. With this in mind, this year’s theme is reimagining work towards the “Next Generation in UCLA Administration.” The resources below include the recorded version of the meeting (excluding the peer group discussions) and other references provided during the event.

Part 3 focuses on Emotional Intelligence for the Next Generation presented by our guest speaker, Dr. Jorge Cherbosque and a fun closing activity to test your knowledge of our ALT and campus. Finally, enjoy the Photo Collage, showcasing colleagues at work over the pandemic.
