The Strategic Laboratory Leadership Program (SLLP) is an executive leadership program that offers a unique environment enabling high-potential employees to build leadership skills, network, gain cross-functional knowledge and, ultimately, prepare for more senior leadership roles.
Developing our world-class community of talent through programs like SLLP helps ensure our staff is well prepared to accelerate science and technology that drives U.S. prosperity and security.
This year’s cohort has been announced and consists of 33 leaders from four national laboratories: Argonne, Fermilab, Idaho National Laboratory, and Jefferson Lab. Programming began in June and will conclude in November.
SLLP is sponsored by UChicago Argonne, LLC. It was developed by the Chicago Booth School of Business.
SLLP Program topics include:
- Developing Talented Leaders: Creating Self-Awareness and Motivating Others
- Actions Skills: Negotiations and Decision-Making
- Leading Innovation
- Strategy and Business Models in a Research Context
- Organizational Change: Changing Minds, Managing Dilemmas, Systems Thinking
