From Expert to Enabler: Leading and Growing in a Rapidly Changing World
Presenter: Russ Nelson
Tue Sep 8, Time 6:00 - 7:30 PM
Virtual via Zoom - Link emailed after registration
Today’s professionals are often expected to lead, contribute, and add value in environments that evolve faster than anyone can fully master. This session explores how to build credibility, lead with confidence, and create impact… even when you don’t have all the answers. Participants will learn how to shift from feeling pressure to be the expert to focusing on enabling progress, asking better questions, and leveraging the knowledge around them to drive results.
