From Doer to Leader: Lessons Learned  
The Leadership Development (LD) series* culminates with a lively and candid session, featuring stories and insights from senior leaders on how to transition from doer to leader.
*One does not need to be a series registrant to attend. Each part of the series is a stand-alone program, though they do complement one another. 

This facilitated session gives participants a chance to ask industry leaders questions concerning industry, practices and management.

It includes a review of key takeaways from past classes, and group problem solving and sharing strategies.
