Hmong Women Summit: The Authentic Leadership Project

​

​

November 1 & 2, 2019

University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire | Davies Center

105 Garfield Avenue, Eau Claire, Wisconsin 54701

​

This year's theme is Leadership Through Critical Learning. We will engage in conversations on ways to effectively engage in self-reflection on one’s own leadership approach and how to learn from the world around us.

​

By practicing critical learning, a process of self-reflection that acknowledges social inequalities, as a leadership strategy, we will be developing inclusive leadership competencies that embrace and value different perspectives. This year’s theme is inspired by our desire to be a part of a movement that creates equity-minded leaders who will create spaces that activate social, economic, and personal agency for the communities they serve.

​

The summit will examine issues relevant to Hmong women through the following perspectives:

​

• Develops equity-minded leadership that focuses on social justice

• Promotes critical self-reflection that examines power dynamics

• Demonstrates ability and willingness to learn from the world and/or multiples sources of knowledge

• Exemplifies co-creation of knowledge with communities
