Lee County:Overcoming Adversity - Crisis Management 

During crises, leaders are either developed or doomed! Overcoming adversity – the ultimate test for you and your ability to lead your team to a successful outcome! Sound the battle cry and rally your troops---this is your moment! 

Overcoming adversity – The ultimate test for you and your ability to lead; Leaders are developed or lost. Facing a crisis begins with first acknowledging one exists and reflecting on your role in the situation.  
Identify your team to help you move forward; as you cannot go-it-alone. And, experiencing this challenge with your team provides great opportunities to build trust, and strengthen both skill sets and relationships. Your team must trust you, your ability and your motives. Your team/organization needs to know you are aware of the situation, you care about your team/organization, and you are up to the task of leading the organization through the crisis. 
Bring your questions and we’ll work through to solutions!

This meeting is being sponsored by Tri-Town Constructions. Please note that there is an open for one more sponsor.  Call the chamber today at 239-910-7426 and let us promote you and your business!
