What Makes Leaders Great Workshop

Application

Not a day goes by when a manager doesn't need to delegate an assignment, follow up on a deadline, or talk with others about a job that needs to be done. The approach we take to these routine daily tasks is what defines us as leaders. An ineffective approach causes undue frustration, loss of focus, strained relationships, missed deadlines, and repeated errors.

When we handle these situations well, people grow, trust increases, and performance improves. Knowing what to say and how to say it, especially in sensitive situations, is not always easy, but it's definitely worth it!

Outcomes

Feedback is about perceptions. Perceptions become reality. The way we are perceived by others affects the way they respond to us. Their decisions and actions toward us are based on how they perceive us. These perceptions impact our conversations, our relationships, and what we do. The way others perceive us ultimately determines the results we get.

We may or may not want to know how others see us> However, we need to know the impact that our actions have on other people. Without feedback we are unable to improve our interactions with them. Without feedback, what would keep us from inventing our own reality?

This workshop offers a proven process for learning and growing from 360 degree reedback. Participants will become more effective not only in their jobs, but in their lives as well.
