We are excited to announce that the Department of Leadership Studies will be relaunching the internationally recognized and celebrated Outstanding Leadership Book Award. Established a decade ago, the award has become an important source of emerging innovation, scholarship, and critical thought in the field of leadership studies. Hundreds of nominations are submitted each year from all over the world in the areas of organizational, higher education, K-12 education, and nonprofit leadership.
Currently, we are accepting names for the book award committee. The committee will be comprised of select faculty, current students, and alumni. The committee will spend part of the fall and winter reviewing nominations to identify top thought leaders. There is a time commitment that involves extensive reading and several committee meetings.
Please let Kelly Metz-Matthews (kmetzmatthews@sandiego.edu) know if you are interested in being considered for the committee. If interested, please include your general area of specialization (higher ed leadership, organizational leadership, nonprofit leadership, etc.) and your year in your program (MA or PhD).
