Addressing Today’s Leadership Gap Epidemic w/ Pat D’Amico

The number one reason people leave a job is because of their direct manager. The resulting negative cost of losing a good employee can range from $200-250k each. Senior executives know their leaders lack leadership competency, but also know and admit that their organization isn’t investing in solving this enormous problem. Pat D’Amico is going to share his decades of training and experience with us as we take a dive into this topic on business that often times gets ignored.

 

 

Working in Fortune 500 companies including Johnson & Johnson and Medtronic, as well as start-ups, Pat D’Amico roles have included sales, sales management, commercial operations, recruiting, marketing and training. As a sales manager, Pat was a 4-time President Club winner. He has led departments at the Director or VP levels in commercial operations, sales operations, learning & development, and sales recruiting, many times encompassing global responsibility. One of the most novel aspects of his career is that more than half his roles were newly created, allowing him to design and launch new departments, even within large established organizations. His cross-functional and cross-business experience have given him a knowledge and perspective on the multiple factors that can impact commercial success.

Throughout his career, Pat’s passions for the study of leadership, driving organizational success, and teaching, along with his belief in being a lifelong learner, have continually led him back to roles in learning & development and training. Pat holds an MS in Education (Instructional Design), a BA in World Politics, and an Executive Coaching certification from the UC Berkeley Executive Education and Berkeley Executive Coaching Institute. He is a frequent speaker and author on topics related to learning& development and leadership and is a member of the Entrepreneur Leadership Council.  https://aboutfacedevelopment.com/
