Overview

The transition from individual contributor to people leader is one of the most underestimated shifts in an accounting career. The technical skills that made you effective don’t automatically transfer — and the professionals who thrive at the leadership level are the ones who figure that out early. This session addresses the practical realities of building and developing a team in an industry environment: how to identify and grow talent, how to give feedback that actually changes behavior, how to build a culture of accountability without burning people out, and how to lead people whose strengths look nothing like yours. Peer exchange is central — because the best insights on developing people come from the people already doing it.
