SERVE WITH HUMILITY: LEADERSHIP IS ACTION, NOT A POSITION!
March 3, 2022 @ 7:00 AM - 8:30 PM
Mobilizing change can be as simple as one step at a time, one walk at a time, and one person at a time. Dr. Makokis will speak about her leadership journey, going back to the mid 1990’s when she started formally studying leadership. That academic journey gave her the opportunity to include Indigenous ways of leading, which means leading collaboratively, with compassion, and kindness. Fast forward to 2021, when the leadership gurus write about leading with intuition, collaboration, and shared leadership. So, is the new really the old?
Studying leadership helped Dr. Makokis validate, affirm and make space for Cree ways of leading as taught to her by Elders. Leadership is a lifelong learning journey that we are all called into, together. We are all related as red, yellow, black and white family—all my ally relations. In this presentation, Dr. Makokis will give you tools to harness the power of your community to work together and mobilize change.
