“It Is extremely impactful on your growth as a young and/or emerging leader,” said 2018 attendee Courtney Binette, collections supervisor at ST. Mary’s Bank. “There is so much to learn and so many people to learn from, not just the instructors, but the other attendees as well.”

Before the event, attendees will take the Strength Deployment Inventory assessment. Then, once the event begins, they will dive into the results to get a better understanding of their leadership strengths and motive-driven behaviors.

After discovering their unique leadership style, participants will dive into the daily responsibilities of leadership and participate in hands-on activities to practice incorporating their conflict resolution preferences to better coach, maintain a high performing team and achieve strategic goals during turbulent times.
