Leadership Programs
Below are some leadership and communication programs we routinely provide to our customers. Alternatively, we can customize these or design others for your organization. Most of these programs range from a few hours to a full day.
Most teams rarely experience the highest levels of performance so in this program, you will learn key strategies to avoid and practical methods to incorporate in your team. Using a trusted team assessment with all team members giving their input, you will learn how well the team is doing around Goals, Roles, Processes & Procedures, Relationships, and Leadership. With this information, we will develop a game plan that drives you to a higher level.
Rolling out a new program, system or policy can be hard because it means people have to change. And during this process, productivity is often reduced to a standstill. Learn how managers can gain support, speed up buy-in, and reduce disruption by understanding where people are on the change curve. You managers will also learn how the change process is impacted when certain components of your strategy or missing.
We each have a style and method to communicate and when it differs from others, disagreement, confusion, and missed opportunities occur. Learn your style, your peer’s style, and your manager’s style so you can more effectively work together and better align around each other’s needs. As part of this exercise, each person will complete the DiSC Assessment.
Competition is great when you have identified the right competitor. Unfortunately functions within the same company often compete against each for resources, attention, money, and deadlines. When this happens, it often results in one function winning while the other loses and has a severe cost to the overall organization. Using the Thomas-Kilman Instrument, you will learn the five elements of conflict and how to more effectively manage, and in turn eliminate, these problems.
Career development works best when both the manager and employee are actively involved in the process and can have productive conversations. In this program, you will learn how to discuss your career needs, identify what is important, determine your development opportunities and lay out an individual development plan. Having these conversations early, and often, will result and a higher performing team member who will be more dedicated to the organization and engaged at work.
Most managers have a difficult time giving performance feedback, but it doesn’t have to be. In this program, learn how to gather your facts, deliver clear and easy-to-receive messages, and set development plans so employees feel valued and supported. You will walk away with some easy-to-use and effective listening models and tactics to more effectively give feedback.
We all have the same amount of time in a day but choose to use those valuable minutes differently. In this program, you will define what is most important to accomplish, assess your time management skills and identify strategies to focus on those critical projects.
Inspiring an audience requires skill and presence. Learn how to craft a narrative in a way that turns information into meaning and speaks to the listener’s needs, excites their imagination and moves them to take action on your ideas. This program will provide you with the tools to: structure your content so that it’s relevant to the listener, use your body and voice to connect with your audience and manage your nerves so that you can “show up” fully and authentically.
