Leading Leaders: Break the Bottleneck

Moderator Leadership
Leadership Opportunities
One leader in a company creates a narrow bottleneck that can stifle growth. Building a team of strong, empowered leaders will widen the bottleneck . Learning how to lead leaders can enable you to build strong leadership teams in the organizations you belong to. Imagine the possibilities of the legacy you can leave…in your company, in your family, in EO, in the community through boards you sit on and organizations you work with
