Building Ownership in the Age of Inauthentic Leadership

Friday, 31 Mar 2006 at 1:30 pm – 2127 Gerdin Building
Bruce J Avolio is the Clifton Chair in Leadership; Director of the Gallup Leadership Institute; Senior Research Scientist with The Gallup Organization in the College of Business Administration at the Universityof Nebraska, Lincoln.
This lecture was made possible in part by the generosity of F. Wendell Miller, who left his entire estate jointly to Iowa State University and the University of Iowa. Mr. Miller, who died in 1995 at age 97, was born in Altoona, Illinois, grew up in Rockwell City, graduated from Grinnell College and Harvard Law School and practiced law in Des Moines and Chicago before returning to Rockwell City to manage his family's farm holdings and to practice law. His will helped to establish the F. Wendell Miller Trust, the annual earnings on which, in part, helped to support this activity.
