My First 5 Years As A Manager:
An Interview With Chad Cross?

FREE Virtual Partnership Event

Thursday, February 22, 2024
7:00 PM - 8:30 PM Eastern Standard Time (UCT- 5 hours)

In our BA Career Series sessions, in partnership with Ryland Leyton and other IIBA chapters, we will investigate specialized and complementary careers in business analysis, such as Agile Analyst, Business Relationship Management, Change Management, Product Ownership Analyst, Project Management, and others. For 2024, Ryland's focus will be Your Year Of Career,

Chad Cross [https://www.linkedin.com/in/chad-cross-6b160211/], Consulting Director at Xebia Microsoft Services US, is a colleague Ryland has known for several years. Having worked with him in some difficult situations and watched him grow and develop as a leader, he is pleased to talk with him about shifting from being a professional in a field to being a manager and a leader in that field!

Chad began this journey into management roles roughly five years ago, so his experience on this transition is direct, modern, and personal!
You'll find him engaging and insightful, with a great perspective on the joys and bumps of shifting into management.

This conversation is for ANYONE interested in this topic. Chad was not a BA, but he appreciates our field. So, regardless of your background, this session will inspire you to enhance your professional skill set while having a good time.

...and as always, Ryland will allow plenty of time for questions from those who attend!

Note: For most presentations in this series, the session recordings will be available to registrants for 30 days.
