Whether you’re interested in writing your own leadership education book or you just want to take a behind the scenes tour with some of your favorite authors, this webinar is for you!

Six top leadership education authors engage in a can’t miss conversation on the writing and publishing process. They’ll reveal lessons learned, discuss why they took on their projects, and how they chose compelling content. Panelists have a wealth of diverse experiences authoring and editing leadership books, chapters, and articles; serving on leadership journal editorial boards; and working with different publishers. The conversation, which will compare and contrast their various experiences, is sure to help fellow educators consider how to disseminate their own research and in what format. At 90 minutes, ample time will be reserved for questions and discussion. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from leadership authors who have been there!
