We are reimagining the Next Gen 2.0 program to better serve future leaders.
As part of this transition, we will be pausing the program for the 2025-2026 academic year.
Please check back later for updates on the program’s future direction.
Next Gen 2.0 was the catalyst to develop enduring professional relationships. These connections have been vital to solving problems in my own unit, while imagining new possibilities beyond the confines of my current role.
Established in 2015, the program builds upon the success of a previous 2009 leadership program, “Next Generation @IU Indianapolis” while drawing inspiration from the national HERS Institute model.
Next Gen 2.0 serves as a pathway to institutional leadership opportunities as it seeks to address the need for succession planning among administrative ranks. Program participants are identified as both emerging and established leaders interested in seeking leadership opportunities at IU Indianapolis or professional development to enhance their current administrative roles. The curriculum is designed to broaden their knowledge, skills, and experiences as members of the higher education community.
