Resources for Supervisors and Aspiring Leaders
Campus Supervisors Network is a UW-Madison Community of Practice, formed out of the desire for more communication and connection among supervisors and aspiring leaders.
By communicating with your peers, everyone has the chance to learn and improve their methods of leadership.
Our planning committee strives to support managers and supervisors in a welcoming and safe environment, where ideas can be shared and connections can be made.
CSN sessions help you to be better in your role as a leader
Our CSN events are geared toward supervisors interested in collaborating with others and sharing information from their work areas, so everyone can learn from positive experiences and avoid future issues. Our events planning is driven by feedback from past participants and trends on campus. Your voice is crucial to our success; please let us know what you are looking for! See our Past events for examples of the topics and books we have covered.
