Join Adam Friedrick in a presentation on leadership principles for young leaders.
Overview
As managers, we identify people within our companies that demonstrate the capacity for leadership and see them as contributors now and into the future. They are our grassroots leaders. We will likely provide them with internal training or send them to the best leadership seminar we can find. But there are principles inherent to good leaders that are often absent, especially in young, new leaders. Their leadership training helps, but it is built on time-honored principles. This presentation will clearly define a good leader and leadership expectations. It will also identify those principles and provide practical methods of how to put them into practice.
