American Academic Leadership Institute

🌟 Celebrating Partnership in Leadership Development! 🌟 The collaboration between The Council of Independent Colleges (CIC) and the American Academic Leadership Institute (AALI) continues to elevate our commitment to empowering future leaders. Our Senior Leadership Academy (SLA) cohort was incredibly fortunate to gain insights from two remarkable leaders: Dr. Marjorie Hass, President of CIC, and Dr. Titilayo Ufomata Ufomata, CIC’s Senior Vice President for Academic Programs. Their perspectives on personal leadership and professional growth—and their unwavering dedication to the success of independent colleges—left a lasting impact on us all. Grateful for these invaluable partnerships that strengthen our mission and inspire our emerging leaders! #AmericanAcademicLeadershipInstitute #AALI #2024CAOI #HigherEdLeadership #CIC #SLA

Looking forward to a great seminar ahead with this amazing cohort! #AmericanAcademicLeadershipInstitute #AALI #SLA #2024CAOI #HigherEdLeadership #Authenticity
