Leadership Strategies for an Adapting Workplace

As times change with the pandemic, work-from-home, recessions, and displaced co-workers, there’s more and more of a challenge for leaders, founders and team builders to find the best team members, keep them motivated, and still grow the business. Add shrinking budgets and stronger demands to grow larger with fewer resources, we’ll also learn how these leaders are doing more with less. Gain valuable insights into the leadership mindset and strategies that will help you maintain business growth and drive results, even during tumultuous times.

Emily O'Hanlon

"AGS was my first networking event I went solo to, and I quickly made friends with colleagues, had great conversations and I felt like I belonged there. The panel discussions, presentations and activities were great and very informative. I walked away with full pages of notes that I shared with my company. I'm excited to take what I learned, and put it to work!"
