Designed for new managers, team leads and individual contributors aspiring to leadership positions, this comprehensive training will guide you by modeling a successful leadership strategy and help you gain the knowledge and tools needed to cultivate a growth mindset for yourself, your team and your organization.
Through live, online instruction and interactive discussions, this program is comprised of the following 6 half-day sessions:
Embracing a Growth Mindset
Can you change another person's mindset? Can you change your own mindset? The answer is a resounding yes. In this session, we will look at new research around fixed and growth mindset. Case studies and role playing will be used to explore how simply believing you can change makes an impact in personal growth and development.
Strength-based Leadership
Unlock your talents and enhance your contribution to both the organization and your team by leveraging your strengths effectively.
Communication Skills in the Workplace
When communication is effective, we benefit by saving time while improving productivity. In this session, we will examine barriers to communication and learn ways to reduce them. In addition, we will practice the skills necessary for effectively sending and receiving communication.
Conflict in the Workplace
Though conflict is a situation that occurs daily, it often makes people uncomfortable. Learning to surface issues within the workplace and successfully navigate challenging situations with direct reports, peers and/or supervisors where emotions run high and positive outcomes are critical, is an integral leadership skill. In this session, you’ll explore your preferred methods of dealing with conflict and examine ways to use different approaches to help bring solutions to the most challenging circumstances.
Moving from Associate to Supervisor
Transitioning from employee to supervisor, new leaders often find themselves managing people who, just the week before, were their coworkers. In this session, we will explore how roles and beliefs change when promoted to supervisor, identify different types of leadership solutions for various situations and examine new goals and values for transitioning into your new role as a leader.
Business Acumen
In today’s volatile business environment, associates need to understand how organizational systems work together to generate revenue and shareholder value, all while recognizing how their actions impact the drivers of success. In this session, we’ll focus on effective business leadership, how to make key decisions and how to create the best outcomes for each organization.
