Middle managers are often overlooked and underwhelmed, especially as change becomes the norm in organizations. They are responsible for so much! From supporting and engaging executive leadership’s vision for the organization to modeling and fostering a healthy culture for their team, middle managers can be caught in a bind. I’m really proud of the training we are building at TIVC that equips middle managers with practical tools and support to effectively navigate and thrive in this middle space. It’s the kind of training I wish I had when I was a middle manager and struggling! This webinar will be a great opportunity to explore how to effectively empower middle managers from many perspectives. I’m looking forward to it!

We hope to see you tomorrow at 6:30pm! In this interactive workshop led by Austin startup executive and leadership expert Nicole Tanzillo, we’ll delve into one of the most critical professional relationships: your executive leadership.

In this deeply practical session, we’ll take a peek into the executive mindset, walk through practical techniques for effective stakeholder management, and hear hard-won lessons from both the practitioner and exec perspective. And, we’ll close with a hands-on exercise building out your own one-page ‘exec anchor’ that you can use with your own team. Join us for a lively, actionable workshop aimed at equipping you with new tools to navigate your executive relationships with confidence, clarity, and credibility.
