Leadership Essentials: Leading Self, Leading Teams and Leading Organizations
When it comes to achieving business success, especially in an ever-changing and highly competitive environment, effective and influential leadership becomes an organization’s strategic imperative. Effective leadership can help an organization maximize productivity, performance, and achieve business goals resulting in business sustainability.
Leadership required for success is one that does not need position or coercion to exert influence. It’s a leadership that is not self-serving but considers the greater good and extracts value from its workforce through positive employee engagement.
The workshop will provide participants with tools and skills that enhance their leadership skills and help them manage their operations and teams more effectively. This will be accomplished by discussing a leadership model that addresses three levels of leadership: leading self, leading others (teams) and leading the organization. At each level, essential and relevant character traits, tools, and skill sets appropriate for that leadership level will be discussed.
Objectives:
- Understand the importance of leadership
- Learn how to consciously lead-self
- Learn principles that help lead and inspire teams
