Time as a Team Asset – Designing Engineering Gatherings That Matter
Great leadership isn’t just about strategy—it’s about creating the right spaces for teams to connect, align, and make real progress.
This three-part workshop series dives into the art of designing and running high-impact meetings, virtual offsites/strategy sessions, and in-person gatherings. Learn proven techniques for designing and facilitating that strengthen team and department connections, drive meaningful outcomes, and create lasting impact.
Each session builds on the last, but they’re structured so you can attend individually or as a full series for a comprehensive approach to better gatherings.
