"Tuesday morning, the CEO Sessions were able to host a guest speaker, Ann Hug, and learn about leadership skills. Her presentation focused on the differences between a leader, boss, and manager. We learned about the different skills that come with being a leader and the characteristics that can make work environments positive.

We participated in a listening and instruction-giving activity in pairs, where one person described an image and the other had to listen and draw while they were not allowed to talk or ask follow-up questions. This showed us how hard it can be to communicate with someone if you aren't fully engaged or listening.

Thank you, Mrs. Hug!"

-Lindsey Euchner, Second Session

“Did you know Leaders and bosses are two separate things? Ann Hug, Vice-President of Clinical Operations at SSM Heath Physical Therapy, explained these differences in her presentation this past week. While providing valuable insights on the difference between a successful workspace and a toxic one, Ann Hug also integrated an immersive communication exercise that gave Session 1 a team bonding opportunity. She showed us how leadership, communication and positive work culture contributes to a successful business.”
