Ready to swap your keyboard for a corner office? Or maybe just curious how to navigate the wild world of IT leadership? Then join us for the next RISE meeting!
Mark your calendars for April 10th at Virginia Western Community College!
We’re thrilled to welcome Rob Garbee, Director of Information Security at the Carilion Clinic, who’ll be sharing his epic quest “From IT Specialist to IT Strategist: My Move to Management.” Think of it as a cheat code for your career!
Here’s the lowdown:
Ever wondered what it’s really like to go from fixing firewalls to leading a team? Rob’s got the inside scoop! He’ll be dishing out the dirt (the good kind!) on his journey from network security engineer to the big boss. Expect tales of triumph, epic fails, and everything in between.
In his own words (or close to it):
“Are you contemplating a leap into management or intrigued by what such a transition entails? Join us for an enlightening presentation where I will recount my journey from a network security engineer to the Director of Information Security. I will candidly discuss the highs, the lows, and everything in between. I’m looking forward to giving you a real, unfiltered look at my move from the trenches to management, and hopefully, you’ll find it useful.”
Basically, Rob’s going to drop some knowledge bombs that could seriously level up your career. Don’t miss out on this chance to learn from someone who’s been there, done that, and probably has the t-shirt.
We’re looking forward to seeing you there! Get ready for some serious insights, a few laughs, and maybe even a networking opportunity or two.
See you on April 10th!
