Welcome to the new People Leaders area!
Why the name change?
The evolution from Managers to People Leaders here reflects an advancement in our workplace philosophy. The words "manager" and "supervisor" aren't being eliminated.
People Leaders is a way of literally putting people first.
It's a reminder that leadership is inherently about people. And as leaders, the way we put people first is by finding the best ways to empower and support them, so that they, in turn, can contribute to making Cornell University the best we can be.
