About This Episode
In this episode of Carolina Business Leaders, we sit down with the powerhouse founders behind Management School LLC—Emily Watrous, Traci Newkirk, and India Martin—to unpack one of the biggest gaps in today’s workplace: the lack of training for new managers. Too often, top performers are promoted into leadership roles with little to no guidance—left to figure it out on their own. Emily, Traci, and India saw this problem firsthand and decided to build a solution. Their program, Take the Lead, is designed to equip emerging managers with the real-world skills they need to lead confidently, communicate effectively, and build high-performing teams. We dive into how they launched a business in record time, what makes their leadership program different, and why investing in managers is the fastest way to transform an organization. You’ll also hear powerful insights on mentorship, managing stress, and the mindset shifts required to become a great leader.
