This event is offered exclusively to AIAA members. Want to learn more about the benefits of AIAA membership?

Join us for “Lead in Full Color,” a four-part webinar series facilitated by David Sandhu. Every technical professional leads from a dominant thinking style. Understanding yours — and the styles around you — is the foundation of everything that follows. Lead in Full Color is built for engineers and technical professionals to give the frameworks to lead with the same precision they bring to their work — without becoming someone they’re not.

The webinar series is free for members and runs for 4 weeks with 4 sessions starting at 1 p.m. Eastern on Wednesdays in September.
