Dr. Stevi Dawn (English Leadership)
Leadership Without a Title
Even when we do not have the title or the power, we are still leaders in our work. Being a leader means understanding the VIP skills that leaders use daily. We call these Very Impactful Practices. Think of it as 8 things you can do every day to establish your leadership brand. Whether it’s learning how to communicate a message effectively or managing conflict in a positive way, these leadership skills create success regardless of your level. It is not about being the boss. It’s about influencing people towards a shared goal. You must lead yourself, before you can lead others.
Nelson Carcamo (Spanish Leadership)
Leading with Questions – The Most Underutilized Tool of the Leader
Nelson’s goal is to develop the individual’s ability to influence others so they can achieve exceptional results, not only in their professional career or function but also in other areas.
