Leadership: Be the Leader Others Want to Follow! Training Seminar

In this course, you will learn how your own leadership style impacts what you accomplish as a leader. You will acquire the skills and techniques that will help you become the kind of leader that others want to follow. We will show you how to interpret your team's mission to its members, guide them through frustrating circumstances, motivate those who feel overwhelmed and torn between your expectations and their other priorities, and prepare them to take on new initiatives and challenges. You will learn how to align your leadership style with that of your organization as well as tailor it to what works best with a given individual. We'll teach you how to use the feedback and coaching mechanisms to build competence and commitment, how to motivate and inspire, and how to build cohesion and loyalty to prevent turnover. Before the course is over, we will help you create a customized step-by-step plan for leading your team to certain success.

  Audience  
  Whether or not you have any direct reports (and how few or how many), as long as you need to work with or through others to make things happen, you are in fact a leader. This course will show you how to lead with style and ease. Leaders at all levels, with or without ???manager' in their job title, will benefit from this course.  
     
  Pre-requisites  
  There are no formal prerequisites. However, if you have worked six plus months in supervisory or leadership capacity or have taken Step up to Supervision! (see Related Courses), you will be able to appreciate the issues dealt with here.  
     
  Comments  
  Customize this course at little-to-no additional cost to your specific needs: - Tell us about any special issues faced by your team -- such as a major project ramp-up, a period of rapid change or uncertainty, overwork or frustration, or attrition -- and we'll tailor the course to address your particular challenges. - If your team has lost its drive, we can help you re-energize them by including a module on motivating and influencing in difficult situations. - If you like, we can include a module on the Myers Briggs, DISC or other suitable profile to help evaluate team preferences and discuss how they impact leadership styles.
