Core Webinar - Best of Core at ALA Annual Conference: The Marvelous Middle; Finding Ways to Grow and Thrive in Middle Management

CHICAGO–Core hosts the webinar “Best of Core at ALA Annual Conference: The Marvelous Middle; Finding Ways to Grow and Thrive in Middle Management” on August 30, 2023, at 1 p.m. CT. Do you ever feel stuck in the middle? You might have “manager” in your title, but it has “assistant” before it, and often you can’t actually make decisions. Many people dread middle management. Instead of just surviving being a middle manager, learn how to grow, thrive, and spread influence in your role. Come for a candid discussion with three middle managers while they discuss their roles, their struggles, and the strategies they use to develop staff and gain influence in their organization. Our panel features three middle managers with different titles, responsibilities, experience and time on the job. They will discuss ways they have worked to improve their own organizations as well as other opportunities they created as middle managers.
