Leadership is a very important business skill.  Businesses rise, fall, or stall based on their level of leadership. Regardless of industry or location, if the level of leadership is increased, the business will grow and thrive. 

The Erie Regional Chamber and Growth Partnership is committed to helping our members develop their leadership skills, knowledge, and strategies. We are partnering with High-Performance, an HBK Company to conduct a 12-month leadership series that will give Erie area businesses a leadership edge.

Instead of doing a broad brush of many leadership topics, this series will focus on important leadership themes each quarter. Each session will have a specific focus that will include discussion, tools, and specific action steps that will allow for easy implementation into day to day business.  This series will also give attendees an opportunity to network with other business leaders in Erie and provide for possibilities of collaboration.

The following are the themes we will be covering with the subsequent topics. Full descriptions of each topic will be given ahead of the sessions. Time for each session is 11:30am-1:00pm.
