| En Root | The OutGrowth Monthly Newsletter Volume Ten | September 2018 |
|
|
Gearing up to release our 10th issue of En Root, we contemplated the very best topic to bring into focus. As we celebrate the [overwhelming] success of the Summer 2018 Legacy Cohort Internship Program and launch back into university life, we thought there was no better subject to highlight than that of leadership. OutGrowth promotes a re-imagined approach to education and personal development, and thus we have an obligation to revisit a topic that is so integral to professional success and fulfillment. The concept of the "natural born leader" is fading, and we are taking this opportunity to offer a fresh perspective, looking at those skills, characteristics and qualities that make the truly great leaders effective. What practices can we adopt (or empower others to adopt) starting today so that we are changing our communities, employees, classrooms and workplace cultures for the better? Happy reading. Grow out with us. |

“I’ve always been ready to step in,” says Kirsten Brinlee, Executive Director of the Baltimore Collegetown Network. And it’s true. This is why talking to and working with Kirsten is always so rewarding, and why we couldn’t imagine a more perfect person to interview on the topic of leadership. We first asked Kirsten to list her top three characteristics of a strong leader. Her answer? Empathy. Perseverance. Vision. |

If you’re like myself, you have quite a few books on your shelf and bookmarks on your browser that speak to whatever the hot and trendy new developments are in your profession. Information technology plays an important role for nearly every vocation, and disruptive technology forces us to keep a close eye on what’s changing and how we need to adapt. It’s important to remember, however, that all the technical details of your responsibilities are only a portion of what you really do, and there are other important facets of professional development that you shouldn’t overlook. |
