Leadership: Evolved - Inspiring Trust
Trust is the currency of leadership - without it, teams flounder and visions stall. Join us for an interactive and intimate workshop with leadership development expert Jason McClain of Evolutionary Companies, designed to deepen your understanding of how trust is built, lost, and regained in leadership.
Drawing from his decades of experience coaching executives and entrepreneurs, Jason will lead participants through a dynamic and experiential session exploring the three pillars of evolved leadership
- Self-Leadership: Cultivate integrity, self-awareness, and emotional intelligence to lead from within.
- Interpersonal Leadership: Build authentic relationships, empower others, and navigate conflict with grace.
- Public Leadership: Inspire others through aligned vision, presence, and communication mastery.
Through guided exercises and real-time reflections, you'll walk away with practical tools and personalized insights on how to strengthen your leadership presence and earn the trust of those you lead.
