Description:

SPECIAL 2-PART SESSION – PLEASE REGISTER FOR BOTH APRIL 30 & MAY 7

Why do technically skilled employees sometimes falter when promoted into leadership roles? Drawing on research and real-world experience across government, higher education, and the nonprofit sector, Dr. David E. Fraser explores how well-intentioned promotion practices can unintentionally set employees up for failure. This two-part CSU Systemwide webinar examines the “competence trap” and its organizational drivers in Session One, followed by practical, evidence-based solutions in Session Two. Participants will gain insight into how to better identify leadership readiness, strengthen internal mentorship pipelines, and realign promotion systems for long-term organizational success. Based on his forthcoming book, Promoted into Incompetence, Dr. Fraser’s engaging sessions blend scholarship, humor, and practical wisdom for leaders at every level.
