EDI Workshop: THE MYTHS VS. REALITIES OF FACULTY LEADERSHIP

May 6 | 12:00 pm1:30 pm PDT

As part of its professional development initiatives, CANSSI is pleased to offer a workshop designed for faculty considering or transitioning into leadership roles. For many faculty, moving into a leadership position can conjure images of sacrifice or the “dark side,” but it can also present meaningful opportunities to make a positive impact within your institution.

We invite you to join this 90-minute session, where we’ll debunk some of the myths surrounding faculty leadership and explore practical ways that taking on a leadership role can yield impactful engagement. You will also reflect on your own beliefs about leadership and identify the pros and cons of stepping into such a role.

Workshop Leader

Corinne Nicolas, 
PhD, PCC

Corinne is Academic Impressions’ Head of Practice for Faculty Success, a member of the Coaching Team, and an ICF-certified coach. As the Head of Practice, she partners with institutions to design and facilitate trainings and programs that foster the development of the leadership skills and mindsets needed for faculty to thrive, advance in their careers, and engage in sustainable, high-impact leadership within their institutions.

Corinne is deeply committed to supporting the professional growth of faculty and aspiring leaders so they can expand their professional impact. Her passion for this work stems from a 25-year career in higher education, as a faculty and mid-level faculty leader in both liberal arts college and research university settings, where she learned alongside and led colleagues navigating diverse stages of academic life. That commitment inspired her “second act”: leaving academia to launch her own coaching practice dedicated to serving faculty and academic leaders, and eventually joining Academic Impressions in 2023.

Born and raised in France, Corinne earned a PhD in English Composition from Indiana University of Pennsylvania, as well as Master’s degrees, in Education and English respectively, from Tusculum University and the University of Haute Bretagne, France. She is an avid beach lover, who likes to experience new places, values time with her family and is on a quest to bake the perfect baguette.
