From Player to Captain: Improv to Improve
"Leaders are born not made." "Engineers are not cut out for leadership positions." Those were the type of ideas I was brought up to believe. And I believed them. My younger self would be quite surprised to follow my professional transformation from introverted engineer to assertive engineering manager working at the world's largest design and construction management agency. My journey from techie to leader boils down to two words: spontaneous speaking. I found the power of off-the-cuff communication to be the vehicle necessary to travel the leader's path. Let me show you how you can use this singularly powerful skill to change the trajectory of your career for the better.
