Transitioning to Your New Role

Aug. 15, 2013, 8 a.m. - 10 a.m.

When many of us are promoted into a leadership position, we may be trained on the "meat and potatoes" of the job - what numbers we need to make, how to schedule, how to manage the costs, etc. What's often missing is how to make the shift from being one of the team members to the new leader. This workshop will reveal the essential behaviors that you will need to adopt in order to fill the role of a new leader.

Execution: Getting it Done

August 29, 2013, 1:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m.
