&lt;p style="margin-left: 40px;"&gt;*An &lt;strong&gt;emerging leader&lt;/strong&gt; is an individual contributor not yet in a leadership role. You may be grooming these individuals for future leadership, or you may want to sharpen their influence skills for the roles they are in.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin:0in; margin-right:0in; margin-left:0in"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This is a comprehensive six-month program designed to develop and equip emerging leaders with the skills and knowledge to more effectively interact with and influence others around them...hence strengthening both productivity and fulfillment at work.&amp;nbsp; The next 2024&amp;nbsp;series will kick off on Wednesday, May 23rd.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We invite you to attend an information session to learn more about the program. Aleta Norris, partner at Living As A Leader, will provide an overview of the series, which includes monthly skill-building workshops, and small group coaching sessions.&amp;nbsp; During this information session, you will have an opportunity to learn the key features of this impactful series and have your questions answered.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You can register for the information session. Even if you can&amp;#39;t make this session, register and we&amp;#39;ll send you the recording.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Or&amp;hellip;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
