AGC’s Construction Leadership Council is dedicated to cultivating the next generation of construction industry leaders. At the AGC 2019 Leadership Development Conference, September 11-13, 2019, attendees took professional development seminars to develop their leadership skills.

 

Motivational Leadership
Facilitator: Robert Johnston, President, Delaware Leadership Academy Inc. – Dale Carnegie Training

Attendees learned the difference between leading and managing, and how to get the best work from their teams.

 

Emotional Intelligence
Facilitator: Pat DeAngelis, Senior Advisor to the CEO & Leadership Team, EDA Contractors, Inc.

Attendees learned strategies to work with others better by improving their emotional intelligence.
