Becoming a Next-Level Leader: How the Top 21 Performance Differentiators are Best Expressed

What actually separates next-level leaders from everyone else? In architecture and engineering firms, leadership is often assumed to come from technical expertise or years of experience. But the firms that consistently outperform their peers are led by people who express a distinct set of behaviors that drive clarity, execution, and trust. In this session, leadership strategist and former engineer Peter Atherton introduces the Top 21 Performance Differentiators that define high-performing leaders. Drawn from decades of consulting and his published work, this framework reveals how elite leaders turn intent into action, align teams around what matters most, and drive measurable performance in complex, high-pressure environments. If you want to lead with greater confidence, improve execution, and elevate how your firm performs, this webinar will challenge how you think about leadership and show you what great leadership looks like in practice.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

• Identify the key leadership behaviors and performance differentiators that distinguish high-performing leaders in architecture and engineering firms.
