Want to learn how to be a more effective leader?

Join us for the ND Club of Austin's 2019 Hesburgh Lecture, with guest speaker Mike Crant from the University of Notre Dame!

*This event is FREE and open to the public.*

Leadership is about getting things done through people. This lecture explores the question, “What makes a great leader and how can I become one?” The lecturer draws from vivid stories of the best practices of highly effective leaders in order to arrive at practical answers to this question.

About Mike Crant: Mike Crant conducts research on proactive personality and behavior at work. He is one of the creators of the proactive personality scale, the most frequently used measure of proactivity in the organizational literature. His recent work has studied the frequency and impact of proactive behaviors in Asian cultures, where proactivity has traditionally been frowned upon.

Mike teaches courses in management, leadership, teams, and decision making to MBA and Executive MBA students. A winner of multiple teaching awards, Mike was selected as the outstanding professor by the Chicago EMBA class of 2007. He has conducted numerous executive development seminars for companies worldwide, including Bayer, HSBC, LANXESS, Siemens, Donnelly, the Far Eastern Group, and Toro. Mike earned BSBA and MBA degrees from the University of Florida and a Ph.D. in Organizational Behavior from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

About the Hesburgh Lecture Series: Inspired by the late Father Hesburgh’s legacy of lifelong learning, the Hesburgh Lecture Series has brought University faculty to Notre Dame clubs and their local communities since 1986. The lectures, presented by mostly tenured faculty, showcase the depth and breadth of Notre Dame’s academic expertise in research and teaching. The series furthers the mission of the Alumni Association to provide meaningful continuing education opportunities to Notre Dame alumni and friends.

Location: St. Edward's University, Fleck Hall, Room 305
