    ATDps: November 2024 Virtual Member Event

    Leadership ability is often seen as a trait people have instead of a skill they can learn. This is because we are looking at it wrong. We use words like “executive presence” or “charisma” because we haven’t spent enough time breaking down those traits into individual behaviors that we can train. Using his experience at the revolutionary aerospace company, SpaceX, Matt will lead participants through the design philosophy of “first-principles thinking” to describe a better way to develop leaders. Using real world examples, you will get to put these design principles into practice to help improve your organization’s existing development programs or build new ones that are even better.


    In this session you will:  

    • Participants will learn and practice how to assess the requirements of their leadership development offerings
    • Identify the most important elements of leadership development programs
    • Make the leadership development programs more streamlined to improve effectiveness.


      Our guest: 

      Matt Gjertsen spent five years as the head of Training & Development at SpaceX, is a former Air Force Instructor Pilot, and is now the founder of Better Every Day Studios. He and his team are on a mission to help companies develop better managers through targeted and interactive training workshops.
