Building the LEAD NOW! Manager

September 18-20, 2024 | Dallas, TX

Great Managers Aren’t Born. They’re Trained.

60% of new managers fail within two years. Give your managers the skills they need to beat the odds.

Leading a team is a distinctly different skill set than those relied upon by individual contributors, and those skills must be learned if organizations want to reap the rewards of a highly engaged workforce.

Stewart Leadership has identified eight core skills managers must master to fully transition from individual contributor to taking their place as a leader within your organization. Your managers will learn them all in this engaging, highly participative, three-day event.
