Know a Rising Leader? Refer Them to WMU’s Aspire Program

Western Michigan University has launched Aspire: Professional Development for Rising Leaders, a two-day executive education experience designed for mid-career professionals working in any field. Held October 9 and 10 at WMU Grand Rapids, Aspire includes high-impact workshops, peer networking, and follow-up sessions with WMU faculty.  

Participants will strengthen their strategic thinking, emotional intelligence, and communication skills, and develop a personalized leadership development plan to support their long-term goals. 

While Aspire is not part of WMU’s internal employee development offerings, faculty and staff are encouraged to help spread the word. If you know a WMU alum or community professional who is ready to take their leadership to the next level, please share.
