Leadership and Change: Setting Directions, Braving the Odds

Loyola Schools, Ateneo de Manila University

Quezon City, Philippines

October 23-24, 2014

This conference seeks to facilitate discussions related to leadership and change.

Leadership styles dictate the direction, administration, and management of an organization. Similarly, the combined will and ability of an organization's personnel determines the success of the institution. The talents and knowledge of personnel, with proper training and experience, are honed under the guidance of a leader. 

Change, in any guise or form, ultimately affects the leadership and management of any organization. This change can be political, social, environmental, technological, or economic in nature. Since change is inevitable, it is only proper to analyze and prepare for the things to come.

We welcome proposals on the following topics: library management and leadership, responsive leadership, mentoring, communicating change, and political, economic, social, technological and environmental changes in libraries.

Paper proposals must be submitted on or before March 31, 2014. Proposals must be submitted using the following format:

1. Title of the paper 

2. Topic of the paper (choose one of the topics enumerated above)

3. Paper abstract (should not exceed 250 words)

4. Curriculum vitae with photo (indicate achievements and/or publications for the last five years)

Please submit paper proposals to: rl.internationalconference@gmail.com
