Presentation Abstract - Taking the High Road in Leadership – Synopsis

Just for a moment, think about that leader who it seems everyone wants to follow.  When they leave an organization, is there a max exodus of top performers?  Do you find it challenging to move from where you are to being like that leader?  In the project management related roles, we are a leader to many, yet oftentimes seem to not be able to set ourselves apart and break through to that next level.  The truth is that most senior level leaders have project management skills or experience tucked away in their background.  There are certain characteristics that these successful leaders have in common.

Shelley Atwell-Vasko has spent many years raising up the next generation of leaders and will provide some suggestions to move you in the forward trajectory.  This presentation will combine personal thoughts with those of John C. Maxwell, from High Road Leadership – as well as actions that you can take to start making a difference today.
