There are many types of leadership styles: laissez-faire, transactional, transformational, autocratic, etc. This webinar will focus on servant leadership, which means you’re a ‘servant’ first. You focus on the needs of others, especially team members and staff before your own. This webinar is part of the Indiana Library Leadership Academy (INLLA) project: Ready to Lead: The INLLA Leadership Toolkit.

The Wells County Public Library has survived 2 years without Dewey and no regrets! What started out as a project about changing numbers to words, became a whole new way of organizing, classifying, labeling and thinking about the library’s entire collection. The decision to ditch Dewey took much longer than the actual process of developing a new classification system and relabeling more than 85,000 items. Stephanie Davis, Director of the Wells County Public Library will share their experience.
Across our country, millions of students attend school safely every day. We have prepared them to meet life’s challenges for years. Tragically, in light of recent events, we must now prepare them for the unthinkable.

Join us for this webinar with the Indiana State Police to learn some survival strategies for active shooter events.
