An evening with Suzy Welch, hosted by Big Think+
What do the most effective team leaders have in common? According to Suzy Welch, they don’t just lead or manage - they do both.
In this fireside chat, Suzy introduces the idea of the “lanager” — a leader-manager hybrid who knows when to inspire big-picture thinking and when to get into the weeds. It’s a concept that challenges the old divide between leadership and management, and it’s changing the way high-performing teams are built.
We’ll talk about what it takes to lead in this way: how to earn the trust of your team and your higher-ups, how to bring company values to life in day-to-day work, and how to adapt your approach to fit the people and challenges in front of you.
If you’re in the business of growing leaders, you won’t want to miss this conversation.
This event is being held during the ATD Conference in Washington D.C. Our studio is a 9 minute walk from the Walter E. Washington Convention Center! Refreshments will be provided, along with a free copy of Suzy’s new book Becoming You: The Proven Method for Crafting Your Authentic Life and Career.
