Description:
In almost every field, from engineering to sales, the transition from practitioner to leader poses a particular challenge: Refocusing individual identity to encompass the success of a team rather than relying purely upon technical prowess. No matter how many examples we see of unparalleled experts in their field whose teams perpetually flounder, when the time comes for our own transitions, learning to base our pride around an entirely new set of metrics remains a universal challenge. But there is good news! With a slight shift in perspective, the exact same skills that led to technical prowess can be used to build and support world-class teams.
Learning Outcomes:
- How engineering (Tech) skills and principles can be applied to leadership challenges
- How lessons learned from music, sports, aviation, and other fields (+) can be applied to leadership challenges
- Insights into motivation and psychology needed to avoid “garbage in -> garbage out”
- The specific life experiences and skills *you* will use more intentionally in your own leadership journey
