Welcome to the Women Faculty Leadership Development Institute (WFLDI).  Building upon the foundational achievements of the ACES program WFLDI is aligned to achieve success for the university strategic plan by promoting diversity through improved retention of women faculty, contributing to a better campus climate, and providing faculty resources that meet the expectations and needs of women faculty scholars.

 

The comprehensive activities target faculty women at each stage of their career, invite the sharing of knowledge across disciplines and ranks, provide customized resources for schools or departments, and encourage collaboration with University partners to improve campus and department climates.

Held in a private, informal setting, this small group discussion provides strategies, support, and advice.
