People Leader Network

Launched by Campus Human Resources, the People Leader Network is a community of UC San Diego managers and supervisors designed to provide people leaders with the tools they need to foster a healthy and successful working environment.

The People Leader Network aims to:

• Support people leaders with the resources they need to become better managers
• Create a direct line of communication between managers and HR to ensure they have the resources they need when they need them
• Provide managers and supervisors with professional development and training opportunities
• Create a sense of comradery by connecting managers throughout campus with each other

People Leader Summit

The People Leader Network meets four times a year for its centerpiece event, the People Leader Summit - an online, interactive session featuring a wealth of necessary tools for people with teams to thrive as People Leaders.

The summit features news and updates; a real-time Q&A where Campus Chief Human Resources Officer Terri S. Winbush and many others answer questions; moderated discussion groups; and more.

People Leader Resources

In addition to the summit, we are working on a set of tools and resources to support you as a People Leader. Some of these have components already available for you to try out, including:

• The UC San Diego Managerial and Supervisory Development Program, also known as the “Subway Stops”
• Toolkit for Team Building

We encourage campus managers and supervisors working through challenges and opportunities around their leadership experiences, responsibilities, and team dynamics to explore the resources available through managerial consults offered by the Faculty and Staff Assistance Program
