Disseminating Knowledge and Experience & Gaining Learning through the International Leadership Association Conference in Ottawa, October 24-28, 2019

Dr. Agger-Gupta used Research and Professional Development funds for an academic conference. This conference involved workshops and networking with other peers in the field.

The 21st annual International Leadership Association conference will be in Ottawa October 24-28 2019. An opportunity to disseminate our engaged learning at RRU through this global network of leadership scholar-practitioner-educator peers, it is also an opportunity to learn about innovations elsewhere. This opportunity sharpens the relevancy of our teaching for RRU students, and advances the university’s mandate for 2 applied, engaged, inter-disciplinary research. I am involved in 5 sessions at ILA 2019. This proposal would fund me and “Walk with Me” dramaturge and facilitator, Will Weigler, integral to one workshop, with the transportation, accommodation, and conference fees to attend ILA 2019.
