ABOUT THE EVOLUTION SERIES
Started in 2015, the Evolution Leadership Series is a program for Central Pennsylvania CEOs and their teams to help them become better leaders, make better decisions and produce better results. The Evolution Series is designed to help leaders move from the old command-and-control style of leadership to a more purposeful leadership style. Leading with purpose changes perspective, allowing leaders to focus on producing great relationships, meaningful engagement and unparalleled results. It is critically important today that, given the low esteem that corporate, business and political leaders are held in, leaders look to embrace a new, effective style of leadership.
