The Cottrell Scholars Collaborative (CSC) Academic Leadership Team (ALT) staged its first leadership workshop in February 2016. (http://www.oxide.gatech.edu/ALT/) Its objective is to provide teacher-scholars with the theory and tools for effective leadership as well exposure to the practice of being a leader in academia. Academic leadership is here defined so as to include research center directors, department heads, deans, etc. Our hypothesis is that this deliberate approach will make them more effective leaders. We will report the details of the first workshop as well as its effectiveness, as determined from pre- and post- assessments.
