Teaching Leaders and Leadership Through Classics
A Virtual Conference | May 8-22 2017

This conference explores how the study of classical antiquity has been, can be, and should be used as a platform for leadership education in the 21st century.

The fifteen pre-recorded talks that make up this conference are divided into panels of 3-5 presentations, organized around these four questions:

•    What are the most effective ways to teach leadership and leaders in a physical classroom or online space?
•    How can Classics be used to teach leaders outside of the classroom, in arenas such as business and politics?
•    What can we do to get the most out of the study (and therefore the teaching) of ancient leadership?
•    What are the best (and worst) ways to draw parallels between ancient and modern leaders?

In addition to the pre-recorded talks, each panel will have an interactive Q&A forum, open only to registered conference participants, where they can connect with each other and delve deeper into the issues raised by the talks. There will also be a separate general conference forum, allowing participants to discuss ideas that don’t neatly fit into one of the four panels. The Q&A forums will be open and live May 8-22, 2017, and, along with the talks and other supplementary materials, will be archived for future site visitors after the conference has closed.
