Contract management is a dynamic profession that relies on strong leaders to create solutions for organizations, customers, and end-users. Sometimes that means thinking bigger when it comes to the critical role a contract management team plays in accomplishing the mission and driving an organization forward.

In this virtual seminar, participants will explore leadership opportunities and challenges faced by contract managers, learn to leverage specific leadership skills, and develop a personal, 90-day leadership plan to hit the ground running. This seminar is perfect for anyone working in acquisition, preparing to take on a new leadership role, and current leaders ready to hone their skills!

Skilled facilitators will keep the virtual experience engaging through all-day discussion, and hands-on practice in leadership skills.

Please plan to join us for a Virtual Chapter Happy Hour immediately following this event, from 2:30-3:15pm PT.
