PDA Event: Elevating Others: Unlocking Your Team’s Full Potential

Libraries thrive because of the amazing people behind them. However, library professionals often focus on their organizations without promoting themselves, which can hinder individual growth and limit organizational potential. In this session, Kowalski will explore how to amplify your team by identifying their strengths, promoting their work, and helping them overcome challenges like self-doubt and imposter syndrome. She will also discuss the mutual benefits of promoting others for both individuals and organizations. Attendees will leave with practical strategies to highlight their team’s skills and projects, fostering growth and collaboration within and beyond the library community.

Meghan Kowalski is the Outreach and Reference Librarian at the University of the District of Columbia. Previously, she worked at The Catholic University of America's Mullen Library where she held positions in both public and technical services. She is the author of the newsletters “Content Prompt,” “The Weekly Wrap.” You can also visit her website to see a portfolio of her work and read her blog.
