Mission

Leadership

What differentiates one leader from another? It’s the people. Leaders are in a unique position to drive and influence key outcomes that exceed corporate goals.

Even though the bar is raised year after year, leaders step up and move their firms forward. Through sheer grit, innovative thinking, and the creativity and commitment of their team members, they lead everyone toward success. We’ll explore those core skills that help leaders:

Communicate Effectively With Stakeholders and Clients
Inspire Their Teams
Engage in Strategic Thinking and Tactical Solutions
Be Transparent About Changes
Adjust Their Management Style to Reflect the Situation They Are In

Communication

Effective communication and effective leadership are intricately connected. Strong communication skills enable leaders to foster close-knit relationships with employees, clients, and executives.

With this course, you will learn the following skills:

Active Listening to Determine the Full Context of the Conversation and Situation
Connecting to Others With Empathy by Understanding Their Perspectives
Giving, Receiving, and Acting on Feedback
Explaining Complex Strategies As Simple as Possible
Being Purposeful and Intentional at Every Meeting and Having Follow-Up Plans

Motivation

Great leaders inspire their employees and team members to go above and beyond to achieve business objectives and realize career goals. Motivation unlocks the “can-do” attitude that empowers your team to be innovative, engaged, and focused.

This course helps leaders with the following:

Setting Effective and Realistic Goals
Providing Resources and Insights for Your Employees to Help Them Accomplish Day-to-Day Tasks
Recognize Employees' Hard Work in Meaningful Ways
Guiding Employees As They Develop New Skills and Take On Bigger Challenges
Unleashing the Superheroes in Your Employees

Delegation

Can one person do it all? No, not really. That is why the art of delegation is a core component in building stronger teams and future leaders.

Delegation frees up time, enabling leaders to focus on strategic effort and success metrics. This course helps you reinforce and strengthen delegation skills, including:

Preparing Your Team for Added Responsibilities
Conveying Clear Expectations
Setting Solid and Achievable Deadlines
Selecting the Right Person to Delegate the Task
Taking Action and Course Correcting When Something Is Off Track

Positivity

Being positive sets the tone with everyone you encounter. Your employees are looking for someone who leads with authority and inspires them to get work done. This course will guide participants in being their best self, helping them to:

Exude Enthusiasm That Motivates Employees to Stretch Beyond Preconceived Boundaries
Engage Employees With a Consistent Approach
Foster Resiliency in Your Employees to Help Them Navigate Challenges
Create an Environment That Encourages Problem-Solving
Foster Workplace Experiences Where Employees Want to Be — Whether Its Virtual, Hybrid, or 100% in the Office

Trustworthiness

Trust is a two-way street. Your employees want to be confident that their leaders believe in the team’s capabilities to get the job done.

Your team wants to know that their leader is right there with them to help deal with obstacles. This course focuses on honing skills that help demonstrate:

Trust in Your Employees’ Capabilities
Authenticity (You Do What You Say)
Integrity (Representing Strong Personal and Corporate Values)
Commitment to Employee Development and Success
Demonstrate Interest in Benefiting From the Differences and Unique Perspectives of Each Employee

Feedback

Feedback is one of the most powerful tools that leaders can use to help employees grow and succeed. With ongoing feedback, a leader can connect to an employee’s interest in doing better, learning more, and delivering great work. This course strengthens leadership skills and helps them:

Give Objective Feedback Designed to Help Employees Identify Action Steps to Move Forward
Target Behaviors Instead of the Person or the Team
Reinforce Individual Accountability
Fuel Employee Engagement
Build Trust Between You and Your Employees
