Marian University’s Dr. Joshua Clary, Vice President of Student Life and Dean of Students, has been selected to participate in the Council of Independent Colleges’ (CIC) Executive Leadership Academy (ELA).
The Executive Leadership Academy is a highly respected, yearlong program designed to help experienced higher education leaders prepare for increased responsibilities, including college and university presidencies. It’s an opportunity for participants to refine the wide range of skills needed to navigate today’s educational landscape effectively.
Through the Executive Leadership Academy, Dr. Clary will gain valuable insights and experiences relevant to senior leadership roles. The program features two intensive seminars in Washington, D.C., led by current and former presidents and other specialists. Participants also benefit from a Professional Experience Plan, mentorship, executive coaching, and ongoing peer discussions. It’s a proven program, with many past participants going on to serve as university presidents or chancellors.
“We’re enthusiastic for Dr. Clary to have this opportunity,” said Aaron Sadoff, President of Marian. “His participation in the Executive Leadership Academy will undoubtedly strengthen his leadership and contribute significantly to Marian University’s ongoing success.”
Dr. Clary’s selection reflects Marian University’s dedication to fostering strong leadership within its administration.
