Glazer center for leadership & service Workshops

Student organizations and campus groups can request a workshop, facilitation, or educational presentation, etc. Workshops are not offered during spring break week, finals week or on holidays.

Please understand that not all requested dates may be possible, or may need to be scheduled at a later time when a facilitator is available.

Workshops can be scheduled in one of two ways:

1. Come to a workshop that the Glazer Center for Leadership & Service (Aztec Student Union, room 220) offers! A maximum of 20 students can attend each workshop due to seating capacity. All workshops will start on time. If you are late your seat may be given to someone on the wait list.

• See the current workshop schedule below. Please note all workshops unless otherwise stated will take place in the Glazer Center for Leadership & Service. 
• RSVP for the Leadership and Service Workshops at TINYURL.com/s25GlazerWorkshops (you can sign up for more than one workshop at a time!) A Zoom link will be sent for each virtual workshop!
• Plan to arrive at least 10 minutes early to ensure you can check-in at the front desk, find our center, and sign-in. If you are late you will be asked to sign up for another workshop. See our Workshop FAQ's linked HERE.

Spring 2025 WORKSHOPS ARE HERE! RSVP HERE

 

WORKSHOP REQUESTS - Request one now

2. Does your group have 25-40 members? Then we are happy to come to you! Request your workshop a minimum of two (2) weeks in advance of your preferred date, knowing that some workshops take more time to schedule. Visit TINYURL.com/GlazerWorkshopRequest

Workshop request guidelines:

• You will be submitting a workshop request. Workshops will be confirmed pending availability of the presenters. While we try our hardest to accommodate first choice dates and times, we may need to work together to find a time that works with the requesters and the presenters. Because of this fact, we ask that student groups request workshops towards the beginning and middle of the semester.
• Workshops are best geared towards smaller groups (less than 40) where in-depth conversations and reflection can take place. If your organization is large, we ask that you consider breaking down the workshops into different dates for different groups - for example, new members, executive officers, event planning officers.
• Fraternity and Sorority organizations seeking accreditation points must schedule the workshops well in advance, and be willing to break down large numbers of members into multiple workshop sessions. You will still receive credit if you do multiple workshops on different dates. Not showing up to a scheduled workshop because enough members cannot attend will reflect poorly on the organization and accreditation scoring.

Workshops available may include:

Leadership & Community Service Workshops

Community Service
This workshop is great for students or student organizations who are looking to increase their knowledge about community service, university resources and service opportunities they can get involved with. The difference between different types of service (i.e.: volunteering, service learning, philanthropy) is discussed along with the procedure for SDSU students to track their service hours with the university. (30 minutes)

Time Management for Student Leaders (best during the first few weeks of the semester)
Among the most important skills mastered by great leaders is the art of balance and time management. This workshop will present you with the skills and practices necessary to be an effective and well-balanced student leader. This workshop is highly recommended for newly elected student organization leaders, freshman, or students in need of a time management “refresher.” (1 hour)

True Colors: Personality & Communication Styles Exercise and Conversations
Communication challenges are often the source of many issues facing leaders in today’s student organizations. Personality differences are also the source of conflict and dysfunction. Learning to understand the different personalities and communication needs in your organization is an important leadership tool. (1 hour)

What Conflict Style Do You Lead With?
This presentation discusses an uncomfortable yet important leadership experience: managing conflict. Participants are asked to define their own conflict style and compare it to the styles of others. Through group facilitation, the group trades tips on managing conflict. (1 hour)

Etiquette for Student Leaders
Having proper etiquette is a skill crucial to situations you will encounter in college, as a professional, and throughout your adult life. Learn the correct way to give a handshake, what to do when you forget someone’s name, and brush up on silverware placement and your table manners! This session will teach you the art of etiquette so you are prepared for face to face and online situations. (1 hour)

Additional workshops are also offered as part of the Leadership Certificate Program.
