About this Event

Growing Your Business Starts with Growing as a Leader

Leadership Lessons for Business Owners
Business growth creates new leadership challenges. Hiring employees, setting expectations, managing performance, and keeping teams aligned can quickly become overwhelming for owners who are focused on serving customers and running daily operations.

This interactive Lunch & Learn session is designed to provide practical leadership insights that help business owners strengthen workforce performance while reducing stress associated with growth.

Rather than focusing on technical HR rules or complex management theory, the session will highlight simple leadership concepts that can be applied immediately in real business situations.
What You Will Gain
Participants will leave with greater confidence in their ability to lead others and clearer understanding of how leadership effectiveness influences business results.

Topics will include:
• Building trust and credibility with employees
• Setting clear goals and performance expectations
• Coaching employees to improve performance
• Addressing problems earlier before they grow
• Communicating more effectively during busy or stressful periods
• Strengthening teamwork as the organization expands
• Making practical leadership decisions that support sustainable growth
Who Should Attend
This session is ideal for:
• Small business owners preparing to hire or recently hired employees
• Owners managing small teams who want stronger performance and accountability
• Entrepreneurs experiencing business growth challenges
• Emerging leaders responsible for supervising or influencing others
• Local employers interested in practical leadership development tools
Facilitator
Craig Butler is the Founder of The Workforce Butler, an HR and Workforce Development firm that supports organizations across the nation through leadership assessment, coaching, workforce strategy, and organizational effectiveness initiatives.
