Monday, January 25, 2016 4:30 PM to 5:30 PM EST

This is a ticketed session. For owners and managers only. Limited capacity, first-come, first-served. Preference will be given to ABA owners and managers. 
You may think of yourself primarily as a bookseller, but as a business owner or a manager you are also a leader. Leadership is an activity, not a position. This highly interactive session introduces principles and competencies for developing leadership skills in yourself and others. You will learn a framework to help you better understand the challenges facing your business and identify ways for making progress on those tough issues.
