  Why Do So Many Incompetent Men Become Leaders?

  Why are women clearly under-represented in management?  One author believes that not only are the popular explanations insufficient, but that we've simply been asking the wrong questions.

  Interested in exploring this controversial topic?  Join your fellow colleagues as we explore, reflect, and potentially (gasp!) learn through disagreements and sharing divergent perspectives.  Our discussion will be inspired by an article from Harvard Business Review. 
  

  Breakfast Available On Site!
  

  American Honda graciously provides coffee for the RoundTable sessions. The on-site Starbucks conveniently opens at 7AM for your breakfast needs!   

  Our Session Format:

  The RoundTable is an exciting approach that stimulates incredible conversation and insight around the topics and trends impacting our discipline. 

  We will read the selected piece aloud together for about 15 minutes.  Then for the next 45 minutes, we offer everyone in attendance equal time to share their thoughts and experiences on or around the topic. Come explore with us!

  The GEMS RoundTable format is provided by Sue Gabriele, President and Owner, Gabriele Educational Materials and Systems.

  Skill Mapping The Future:

  How to Define Yours and Your Clients Must Have Skills

  Presented by Murray Johannsen

  “On the stage of business, we need the right skills to be a star. Without these, we are always just a bit player.” — M. Johannsen

  This presentation covers the six-steps of skill-mapping — a powerful methodology designed to create a career map into the 21st Century. Skill mapping gives you greater control by reducing the confusion over what to do in the future; while defining how to: take action yourself, train others, or coach another.

  First, we map your present and future roles; the roles needed to shine bright in the darkness of mediocrity. Next, it’s on to environmental scanning and fleshing out the expertise and skills one has and one needs. Finally, we go tactical and take action.

  Murray Johannsen is the founder and president of Legacee and the Legacee Academy. He heads-up the organizations’ coaching, live, and on-line learning programs in three core skill-silos: leadership (especially transformational leadership), digital marketing, and skill mastery. Mr. Johannsen is also an adjunct professor who teaches undergraduates and graduate students at UCLA and other universities.
