Wed, 01/27/2021 LAWRENCE – The University of Kansas Public Management Center has announced the fall 2020 Emerging Leaders Academy (ELA) graduates. The graduation ceremony was held virtually Dec. 11 due to safety concerns around COVID-19.  The 36 graduates come from various public sector organizations across Kansas and the Kansas City metropolitan area, including government agencies at the local, state and federal levels, as well as nonprofit organizations. The fall session began in late August and met weekly online in Wednesday or Friday cohorts.   ELA is a program targeted to promising, nonmanagerial staff to help them prepare for leadership roles in their departments and agencies. Participants meet together 10 times over four months, with classes designed to help them hone their skills for positions of increasing responsibility while also growing their effectiveness in their current roles.
