“I took Lead from the Middle last year, and it was truly a game-changer for me as a leader. Coming back from leave, I felt overwhelmed and frustrated by all the changes that had taken place in my absence. This course not only helped me regain my footing quickly but also gave me invaluable insights into leading effectively in a dynamic work environment.
