The Faculty Leadership Fellows Program was an enlightening experience. The program provided the intellectual, social and emotional space for me to think about the complex nature of leadership in a diverse environment on the level of administration and in the classroom. … What stood out most for me was reimagining how leadership values can be part of my pedagogy and mentoring relationships. This experience has changed how I identify leadership qualities in my students in the classroom, how I foster leadership opportunities and how I mentor students, faculty and staff.

I gained a deeper appreciation for the diversity of the college as well as a deeper appreciation for how the college benefits from the richly diverse leadership skills that our faculty bring to the task. I saw that we all approached leadership from different perspectives but in pursuit of a common goal. I think we all left the program with a clearer sense of what it means to lead from one’s values and how our own talents can contribute to shared leadership at BMCC in large and small ways—in the classroom, within our departments, or at the college or university levels.
