I am amazed at how applying the concepts and techniques from this course has made my job as a leader easier and improved the efficiency of my team as a whole. Learning “HOW” to implement positive accountability, handle conflict, approach change, and indentify what motivates people are game changers. Individual mentoring sessions with Dr. Arrington in conjunction with the course material increased my confidence and made me realize that doing all the things that make a leader great are not as scary as they seemed in my head. Now that I have a high performing team, my time is freed up to conduct more research on emerging technologies, becoming more of a solution architect, and setting a path forward for my team to acheive great things while I ensure we are contributing significantly to the “big picture” goals and strategy of my organization.
