Join the Augusta Metro Chamber and presenting sponsor Spherion for a workshop-style Women in Business luncheon on Tuesday, June 18, 2019.  Facilitators Wendy and Michael Perry of Catalyst Executive Advising & Development will guide group discussion on key issues about varying styles of communication, and provide tips for developing leadership qualities personally and as a mentor.

Effective leadership and communication are so intertwined they could be interchangeable when speaking of skills for success.  Forbes magazine summed up 5 leadership characteristics and all tie to communication style and habits.  This special workshop-style luncheon is designed to reveal and enhance leadership/communication.  Guests will gain key takeaways for planning next steps in individual professional development.
