This webinar will serve as a how-to and what not to do, looking at the lessons the panelists have learned throughout their careers. The panel will examine how you can expand leadership qualities in your team, how you can help your department navigate through institutional structures and procedures without going rogue, and how you can move your team through difficult situations.

This webinar will feature several panelists led by Mark Black. Mark is the Branch Manager at Regina Public Library’s Central branch and is interested in the areas of barrier-free library service.

This webinar will be held via Zoom and is free for all SLA members, both individual and institutional, and costs $25 for non-members. Not sure if you’re a member? Check with your employer! If they have an institutional membership, you are covered under that.
