Developing Leaders
Registration: Register by noon, November 10, for a meal
Guest Speaker: Penny Miller, SPHR, SHRM-SCP
Program Description: Companies spend a lot of money on leadership development, but still don't always achieve the results they want. In this program, we'll discuss how to develop leaders, whether or not the employee is currently in a leadership position.
