Leadership Essentials: Leverage Strengths
to Create Influence and Results
Leadership Essentials is an advanced
leadership workshop building on basic managerial competencies -
such as those developed in
Management Essentials.
This hands-on, interactive leadership
workshop introduces participants to advanced leadership
strategies and leadership tactics. It provides practical
leadership tools for effective leadership.
The leadership workshop includes three main
modules:
- Understanding Yourself and Others
– Temperament theory and practice. Explore the 4 working styles
/ temperaments and determine your own personal “best-fit.” Once
you understand what makes you tick (and what ticks you off),
learn to “de-code” other personality types and develop your own
toolkit of understanding and techniques to work productively
inside and outside of your team.
- Mapping the Team – Graphing your
team’s unique strengths and vulnerabilities. We’ll illustrate
and map the workgroup’s composition to understand team dynamics
and uncover ways to more effectively work together. Learn to
harness the team’s natural strengths to drive performance and
productivity.
- Go-Forward Plan – The capstone of
this leadership experience is the development of a personal plan
for your own continued development and a plan specific to your
team based on your new understanding of the strengths and
challenges of your team.
In addition to the 3 core leadership
modules listed above, you and your team also may select from 2
of 5 the elective modules listed below:
- Coaching for Superior Performance – Create a
personalized approach to regularly deliver both positive and
constructive feedback that will resonate and spark performance.
Develop a personal toolset that sets fair standards and provides
objective, actionable feedback.
- Effective Delegation – It’s more than getting someone
else to do the things that you don’t want to do. Learn the basic
rule to decide if you should do it yourself or ask someone else.
Practice delegating, measuring the results, and providing
feedback.
- Team & Individual Motivation – Some people feel that
the phrase “it’s your job, just do it” should be enough
to get people to perform. There’s more to creating focus,
excitement, and passion about our work however. Learn how to
correlate each individual’s core needs to the work at hand to
drive lasting success.
- Virtual Team Leadership – Influencing others when you
have the responsibility, but not the authority can be a
challenge. Discover how understanding and responding to the
personal motivations and values individuals hold can create an
effective virtual team. Develop and practice effective
communication and measurement processes.
- Leading Change – If change is the only constant, why
is it so hard to do? Learn what each of the four temperaments
fears most (consciously and unconsciously) about change and how
to address them productively. Shape and improvise your
strategies for change, as you understand what individuals need
in order to embrace change and move forward.
This course is for leaders, managers, and
supervisors who have mastered basic managerial skills.
