Creativity, collaboration, communication, and critical thinking are skills in demand by twenty-first-century employers to meet the needs of rapidly changing industries. Successful leaders will master these skills and effectively apply them to solve industry and organizational challenges. Librarians and academic technology staff at City University of Seattle apply creativity, collaboration, communication, and critical thinking skills to navigate today’s changing digital information landscape and to transform the nature of the resources and services they provide. They serve as transformational leaders, collaborating with faculty to develop twenty-first-century skills in CityU graduates through an innovative information literacy and academic technology program that is integrated within the context of specific disciplines.
