About the Program
UC Berkeley is participating in a UC Systemwide program called Lead from Where You Are. This program is available to the One IT community and tailored to individual contributors and new managers across the University of California System.
Leadership isn’t about a title or position. Lead From Where You Are is designed to cultivate, inspire, and prepare emerging leaders to step further in, champion initiatives, and impact an organization more broadly. Recognizing and engaging individuals in this way can accelerate their development, build their confidence, and enable them to see a pathway for contributing in a more significant way to the success of the organization.
