about the event

According to a CareerBuilder study, only 40% of new leaders receive formal training when they become a boss for the first time.  The rest are forced to get scrappy to quickly equip themselves with new skills, techniques, and mindsets to effectively transition into their new roles.  

This workshop was designed to fill this gap; providing tactical techniques and resources for both new and seasoned technical leaders! 

Topics include: 

Purposeful leadership

Time management 

Prioritizing the right things 

Role definition & clarity

Social styles

Giving feedback

Career conversations

1:1s

Coaching

Diversity & inclusion

Recruiting, interviewing, & onboarding

Relationships (politics) of management

Authentic leadership

Interactive group exercises will help you practice these new ideas and techniques in a safe and engaging environment.   

You will leave with new perspectives on Management, as well as handouts and plenty of resources to grow and further develop skills in your daily work. 

Workshop is limited to max 16 attendees due to the highly interactive nature of the day.  

Workshop cost will also include light breakfast (fruit, assortment of baked goods), beverages (soda, coffee, water), buffet lunch, and a light afternoon snack.
