From Manager to Executive – Scaling Leadership for Greater Impact
Program Overview
Many technical managers aspire to move into executive roles, but making the leap from operational management to strategic leadership is a significant challenge. As managers, they excel at driving execution, but senior leadership requires a broader focus—leading through influence, shaping business strategy, and navigating complex organizational dynamics.
