Tuesday, October 28, 2025 | 1:00PM–1:45PM CT | Meeting Room 209 C, Level 2
Session Type: Breakout Session
Delivery Format: Presentation/Panel Session

Leadership development in higher education often takes a back seat to day-to-day demands. But what if AI could help change that? In this session, participants will explore how generative AI can be a strategic partner in creating personalized, actionable professional growth plans. Using real-time prompts and examples, attendees will discover how to align their goals with evolving leadership competencies, balance time and energy, and navigate the emotional labor of leading in uncertain times. Whether you're charting a new path or reigniting your purpose, this session offers a practical, AI-powered roadmap for sustained professional vitality.

* Brought to you through a collaboration between EDUCAUSE and ETC (Educational Technology Collaborative), this hybrid classroom pilot program allows us to bring the event experience to a select group who cannot attend in person. The hybrid classroom experience leverages cutting-edge technology to allow the remote audience to participate real-time with the in-person audience. Representatives from the tech companies providing equipment will be present to answer any questions.
