The final session brings the series together and asks participants to look beyond their current title or responsibilities and consider the kind of leader they want to become.
Participants will examine leadership presence, credibility, influence, and the experience other people have when they interact with them. We will explore how to lead up, down, and across an organization, how to develop people rather than create dependence, and how a leader's reputation is built through hundreds of small interactions.
Participants will also consider a powerful question: What would your team say about your leadership if you weren't in the room?
The series concludes with a personal leadership commitment that gives participants a practical way to apply what they have learned beyond the classroom.
