Have we created the wrong reward system? [Fishbowl]

​Is jumping into management the best move for high-performers? Some of Library Land’s strongest technical, public service, and specialist staff thrive because of their expertise, not because they want to supervise people. Have we unintentionally equated career advancement with supervising people? What do libraries gain, and lose, when their best experts become managers?

​Join this provocative fishbowl conversation as we examine the tension between expertise and leadership.

​Fishbowl conversations replace presentations with participation. The guests start the conversation and invite participants to step in, contribute and shape the dialogue together.
