Welcome to the first The AHRD Leadership SIG Sponsored Webinar: Turning your class paper into a conference proposal.
There are just a few housekeeping items to cover before diving in here, today.
First I would like to take a min to explain a couple of features of the webex
Webinar forum. (Audio, and Chat box).
Second, we will hold questions to the end, but feel free to write them in chat box as they pop up- so we can catalog them and respond at the end of the webinar.
Third, thank you for joining us today. If you are not a member of AHRD and are looking for a great scholar practitioner conference/organization to become a member of, please go to (I have typed in the chat box and is here on this slide as well).
Now, let’s get started. I would like to introduce our very wonderful presenter , Dr. Tonette Rocco.
Tonette S. Rocco is professor and graduate program director adult education and human resource development, and Director of the Office of Academic Writing and Publication Support, Florida International University. Dr. Rocco is an award-winning author, a Cyril O. Houle scholar in Adult and Continuing Education, and a recipient of the AHRD Laura Bierema Excellence in Critical HRD Award. She is editor in chief of New Horizons in Adult Education and Human Resource Development.
Okay, thank you all again. Now I will turn it over to Tonette.

Leadership SIG Best Contribution Award
 Welcome &  Introduction of Committee - SIG Charter update (need to bring a few copies)        - other positions on the Committee to fill  - Share survey results - Future ideas (special issue, award, mentor program) - Activities between meetings (here the idea would be to have the group work in smaller groups of 5-6 people and come up with what these activities would look like)  - Walk around the room and put name and under research topics ( as assembled through survey) to create joint research and collaborative groups.  - SIG Leadership Mentor Program - collects names and who they would like to be their mentor/ or who wants to be mentors?

4. Purpose
To provide a forum for leadership scholars, practitioners, and students within AHRD to discuss findings and emerging theories.
To facilitate interaction and organize activities in the field of HRD that support the development of leadership.

5. Leadership SIG - Vision
To become the leading provider of the most current leadership research, resources, programming, practices, and opportunities to engage AHRD members in dialogue and collaborative efforts to leverage leadership in the 21st century and beyond.
I would say that it is important to understand where we are with this vision. Are we a leader in providing the most current leadership development research?
