DH Leadership (DHSI 2026)

This offering is intended for those in, or those considering, leadership roles in DH including leads for collaborative or team projects, academic programs, and administrative roles requiring a broad, deep understanding of DH in terms of resource allocation, professional advancement, integration with institutional mission, and strategic planning. Based on the model of the earlier ‘Chairs and Deans’ course, this offering establishes a cohort that [1] meets as a group for a number of dedicated presentation and discussion sessions throughout DHSI to survey and discuss pragmatic DH basics and leadership issues related to supporting DH and those who practice it, [2] allows those enrolled to audit any and all of the DHSI courses (as non-participatory observers, able to go from class to class), and [3] individually engages in consultation and targeted discussion with the instructors, speakers and consultants contributing to the course, and others in the group outside of course time during the institute.
