Gartner client services leaders to headline Leadership NEXT program on Nov. 13

 

Several client services leaders from Gartner, Inc. will offer advancing business leaders insight into the thriving IT advisory company during the Greater Fort Myers Chamber of Commerce’s Leadership NEXT program in November.

The two-hour session begins at 5:15 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 13 at Building 2 of Gartner’s Southwest Florida headquarters, 12651 Gateway Blvd. in Fort Myers.

Two key members of Gartner’s leadership team are teaming up to provide attendees with an overview of the company’s history and services: Michael Chalk, group vice president of premium services, and Jennifer Straley, vice president of client partner organizations supporting end-user clients. Chalk has worked with Gartner for 20 years, while Straley’s career with Gartner has spanned 15 years.

Following their presentation, a panel of company leaders will answer questions before Leadership NEXT’s popular network opportunities commence.
