Education Professor Learns from Leaders at HERS Institute

Arpana G. Inman, professor of counseling psychology and chair of Lehigh’s department of education and human services, joined 67 women leaders from across the United States in the 2017 Higher Education Resource Services (HERS) Institute this summer.

HERS is a nonprofit that provides leadership and management development for women in higher education. The 12-day residential leadership development program took place in July at Bryn Mawr College.

“Frequently, people are put into leadership roles with little guidance or training,” said Inman, who joined Lehigh in 2002 and has chaired the department since 2013.
