The Markey LAUNCH Leadership Academy equips early mid-career level members with valuable leadership skills, provides expanded understanding of the complex operations of a comprehensive cancer center and facilitates the promotion of program graduates into leadership positions. LAUNCH leverages virtual and campus-wide resources. The LAUNCH leadership academy does not provide salary support.
The program duration is 12 months. Participants will be required to participate in regular interactive sessions via in-person and virtual formats. Session content will include access to Academic Impressions webinars, seminar discussion of topics essential for effective leadership and particularly critical for leading a diverse, multidisciplinary workforce.
Participants will learn the roles of each Markey Cancer Center leader, the mission of each Markey program and network with university-wide leaders. Participants will partner with a Markey leader to develop a project in alignment with Markey’s Strategic Plans. Participants will also be required to participate in program evaluations and periodic alumni surveys.
