University of Mary Washington’s Continuing & Professional Studies Department is excited to announce the continuation of the 2025 Business Acumen Series – a series of one-day seminars aimed at building leadership and business skills in the Fredericksburg region.
The 2025 Business Acumen Series (BAS) will focus on developing essential tools, strategies, and leadership principles for successfully planning, managing, and executing projects while fostering a culture of collaboration, communication, and purpose-driven leadership within teams and organizations.
Disruption is no longer the exception—it’s the norm. Whether you’re leading a team, a classroom, or a community, the way we work and serve has changed for good.
This high-impact, one-day workshop will equip you to lead confidently through uncertainty, using lessons from Reset by Dan Heath and Disrupt Everything by James Patterson and Patrick Leddin. Instead of reacting to disruption, you’ll learn how to drive meaningful, positive change.
You’ll walk away with eye-opening data on disruption’s impact in your sector, tools to spot and harness disruption for growth, a practical action plan to lead change with clarity and confidence, and a bonus team matrix to help you partner better with colleagues and stakeholders during times of change.
Be the disruptor who makes things the world better.
Speaker: Rose Heyward, Talent & Organizational Development at Mary Washington Healthcare
