In the Fall of 2021, I had the great honor of being accepted into the Nashville Technology Council (NTC) Emerging Leaders in Tech (ELITE) 2021 Cohort. The Greater Nashville Technology Council is, in their own words, “the catalyst for creating America’s premiere collaborative and inclusive tech community.” (see their full Vision & Mission here) Airship is a proud member of this vibrant community, with a few of our Crew members living in the Nashville area.

During this 12-week program, our cohort of emerging tech leaders had the privilege of being led through a mix of training sessions facilitated by the inimitable Jennifer Patterson of Agility Leadership Group. These sessions included practicums, one-on-one mentorship, and networking events all designed to expand and foster leadership skills.

It’s tough to distill 12 weeks of life-changing leadership content into a blog post, but I have chosen to touch on just three areas that apply across many industries and job descriptions. I have naturally focused my aim on the tech world, but no matter what you do or where you are, leadership is leadership, and these ideas still apply! So let’s talk briefly about how to lead in your current role, your local network, and your community at large.
