Her Four Key Leadership Tips

1. Invest the time to know the organization

3. Be you. Be authentic and open to new experiences
4. Use leadership love to build a team

How she used Jon Gordon​ and his book “The Energy Bus” to create a positive culture and inspire her team

Leading 2,000 volunteers and being committed to ensuring an outstanding experience for all led Michele McManamon to reach out to her friend Jon Gordon. She and the PGA purchased books as required reading for her leadership team. She infused the concepts throughout the organization and she asked Jon to speak to the volunteers to solidify the message.

Her fascinating approach to leading men

Her biggest advice is to be yourself and to listen carefully to the language used.

Be yourself – she is not a golfer and led a golfing initiative. She used her passion for the outcome raising money for not for profits to drive the work for all.

Explore new adventures – while not a golfer she is a hunter and used her experiences to be connected on the course and in other team building experiences.
