The goals of the CAL Leadership Institute are to develop leaders within CAL and the Colorado library community by:
- Allowing an exploration and understanding of personal leadership styles.
- Developing key relationships among participants, presenters, and the larger library community through inquiry (listening and understanding others), advocacy (learning about issues and taking a stand), and networking (building collaborative networks and creating coalitions for change).
- Providing the necessary professional development opportunities to grow leaders at all levels of library organizations.
