SEMINAR LD209:
Manager vs Leader
We have all worked for them, the good and bad managers or leaders. But what is the real difference between a manager and a leader? Most managers do not even realize that they are just managing their operation and not leading their greatest assets, their employees. Come discuss the differences between the two and how to transition from a manager to a leader. Learn techniques to catapult not only your career, but also that of your teammates or other managers that you might supervise. Learning to lead will arm you with the tools to elevate you and your program to new heights that would never be achieved by just managing daily operations.
