Too often, leadership is seen only in the office. But the most impactful Coordinators and Directors are right in the heart of the program, listening, observing, and supporting in real time. They are not just administrators; they are culture shapers, advocates, and the bridge between what is planned and what is really happening. This interactive session will help leaders maximize their influence by being visible, approachable, and engaged. Participants will learn strategies to build trust and credibility with staff, solve problems before they escalate, and advocate for resources using firsthand knowledge. With reflection prompts, success stories, and group discussions, attendees will leave with a practical action plan they can put into practice immediately.
