About this webinar
Do you look at great leaders and wonder what sets them apart from the rest? The answer is simple, they lead. Great leaders do not simply manage employees, they empower and inspire. Becoming a great leader that people want to follow requires simple traits and habits that anyone leading a team can learn. Join experienced early childhood program expert and motivational speaker, Evelyn Knight, to learn to move from being a manager to becoming an inspirational leader who inspires teachers to provide exceptional care and a desire to lead from within. When you lead (rather than mange) your program will be empowered with energy, enthusiasm, and joy. Join this webinar to learn to:
Inspire team members to take ownership of their roles.
Retain and create long term staff.
Recruit staff seamlessly.
Enroll loyal families that refer others to your program
Empower staff members to take on more responsibility so you can focus on the big picture.
All sessions are 1.5 hours long and include a brief announcement from our sponsor. 2:oo PM – 3:30 PM Eastern Time.
