Rising Leaders Program

WICT’s Rising Leaders Program seeks industry professionals who are ready to challenge their own skills and to take the next step towards designing their individual leadership blueprint by participating in three hands-on sessions comprised of leadership analysis, case study work, cable business acumen and tactical personal leadership skill development.

The Program
Part 1 - (February 11 - 13, 2008 - Orlando, Florida) presents personal leadership development, and explores the importance of how understanding social styles can help you create better relationships with a variety of people. Participants walk away empowered with a strategic personal leadership plan and a tactical approach to team management to help each individual navigate towards her full potential. 

Part 2 - (March 4 - 6, 2008 - New York City, New York) allows you to reconnect with classmates and attend the second annual WICT Leadership Conference focused on leadership development, cable business and women’s issues. 

Part 3 - (April 15 - 17, 2008 – Scottsdale, Arizona) features important skills to learn from Erika Andersen’s book, Growing Great Employees. This session will also focus on high performance teams and how they are created. You will create a strategic plan for your own future as a leader that you can begin to implement immediately.
