BRIGHT Leaders
The BRIGHT Leaders platform is a vision for leadership and professional development at UT Dallas. BRIGHT Leaders is an inclusive program that enables the success of all UTD employees by providing growth opportunities for staff and faculty at all levels. Participants can learn leadership principles and access tools so they may “Lead from Where You Are”, and that support and nurture the professional development of bold, responsible, high-performing, and transformative leaders. The program is hosted virtually via MS Teams and is an open resource of articles, book recommendations, videos, in person and on-line classes, and leadership pathways with core classes and recommendations for a more structured development plan for those who desire.
