RYP Pro Development: What Does It Take to Be a Great Leader?
June 6, 2018 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm
FreeAsk 100 people what being a leader means, and most likely, you’ll get 100 different answers. We’ve all seen the quote about the difference between being a boss and a leader. Cool-headed, farseeing, visionary, courageous – whichever adjectives you choose, leadership is a winning combination of personal traits and the ability to think and act as a leader, a person who directs the activities of others for the good of all. Above all else, leadership is active, not passive.
One person who knows a thing or two about what it takes to be a real leader is Jeff Knauss, a 40 Under 40 recipient in 2014. Whether Jeff is leading as co-founder of the award-winning digital marketing agency, Digital Hyve, or being a community leader by sitting on EIGHT different Board of Directors, Jeff is a leader every day. Jeff’s company went from 2 co-founders to close to 30 full time employees across 9,000 sq feet of offices in both Syracuse and Rochester in only 3.5 years. They won Business of the Year in 2017 by CenterState CEO and are projected to be in the top 100 Fastest Growing Companies in Inc Magazine’s Fastest 5,000 in the US for 2018’s edition.
Join us on 6/6 at 5:30pm at 933 The U for a brief presentation on lessons he has learned during his journey of becoming a CEO and what does it takes to be a GREAT leader! Stick around after for a tour of the new apartments currently being offered too!
