Denver Leadership Workshop & Happy Hour
The Best Manager Ever Podcast is hitting the road, and coming to Denver!
Join us for a structured happy hour to build leadership skills and connection with fellow startup leaders who care about the human side of company-building.
We'll hear leadership lessons from expert operators, and then break into small group discussion to trade notes, ask questions, and workshop live challenges. You can expect an engaging, interactive, practical event (and not a passive lecture).
Mentors will include guests from our podcast, Best Manager Ever:
Amit Shah - President, Virta Health
Katie Corder-Paul - Head of Customer Success, Anuvi
Attendees will be builders and operators from the Denver startup ecosystem.
Doors open at 4:30pm, and the program starts at 5:00pm.
Drinks and light bites will be served.
