Leadership: Courage Required
It takes courage to be a leader and a follower. It takes courage to be innovative, to assess the effectiveness of one’s work and research, and to discuss what went right and what went wrong. It takes courage to be a mentor, a teacher, and a student. No matter what your pathway is, no matter what your work, courage comes into play. See the link for conference registration details, here.
