How to Ask for Great Leadership Evening Speaker Series with Cohosts ASHRM & WBU SHRM

How to Ask for Great Leadership

What type of leader do you want and do you need?
Too often, employees (interns, volunteers, mentees, too) do not feel or are not comfortable asking a supervisor and/or manager for a specific type of leadership. It is important that employees are involved in the style of leadership they are provided. Each person owns 50% of every relationship that they are in, and
without being able to provide your input,

this relationship could range from being very poor to fantastic.

A key way to influence an amazing outcome is to be part of the conversation.
