America’s Group said Monday it has launched a leadership development program to prepare future managers throughout the company’s auction network.
The program, called America’s University, is a “deeper, more comprehensive step beyond” America’s Group’s existing Leadership Journey program, the company said.
It aims to provide emerging leaders at America’s with the know-how they will need to lead various aspects of running an auction.
“At America’s Auto Auction, we are committed to growing not only our business but also our people,” America’s Group CEO Chuck Tapp said in a news release.
“The Leadership Journey has been instrumental in cultivating strong managers. America’s University takes that a step further, providing in-depth, hands-on training to build the next generation of top leaders who will shape the future of our auctions,” added Tapp, who is among the speakers at Used Car Week next month.
The four-month program includes 13 sessions diving into topics like human resources, marketing, national and dealer sales, institutional account management, financial operations and IT, among others.
