Issue #55 February 2017
Lifelong learning with education and workforce development was the theme for this month’s experience. With strategic leadership at its core, the skills promoted and developed during the session included etiquette and change. With an emphasis on education during the early morning talks and activities the Leadership Keweenaw (LK) cohort enjoyed listening to representatives from the local K – 12 system in addition to our local higher education leaders from Michigan Tech University and Finlandia University. With additional informational sessions about being courageous in leadership, the local School-To-Work (Certified Technical Education (CTE)), workforce and talent development and the ongoing search for talent locally engaged the LK participants as an interactive crowd. Finally, our session ended with a lesson in business etiquette in public speaking and an excellent presentation by former Houghton City Manager, Scott MacInnes, on strategic leadership skills. As this is just one of our many sessions as a cohort, our networking with local leaders has enhanced our perception into what it takes to be a leader.
