Texas DRS Leadership Academy
The following curriculum for the fourth cohort of the leadership program for
the Texas Department of Assistive and Rehabilitative Services, Division of
Rehabilitation Services is proposed to develop the available talent pool within
the agency, promote a learning culture and develop networks of future leaders.
This program is designed to be completed in an eighteen month period, with six
training sessions, field assignments, a personal development plan and a final
project. On-going coaching will be provided to participants throughout the
length of the program.
This proposal includes recommendations for a selection process and learning
objectives for each training session. The proposed time frame begins in January
2010 and ends in September 2011.
Selection Process:
Enrollment should be limited to 25 participants who are interested in
exploring their potential for leadership and management roles. Some factors to
be considered to establish selection criteria for participation in this program
include:
- Projected tenure with the organization should be at least
five years

- Must receive satisfactory performance reviews
- Encourage diverse representation (Race, ethnicity, gender,
geographic regions and multiple organizational perspectives)
- Likelihood that learning will be applied based on
applicant’s statement of intent
