Influential
Leadership
In times of challenge, change and uncertainty, effective and skillful
leadership becomes crucial to the success of teams and organizations.
Leadership, has little to do with positions of formal authority. It
occurs whenever a person attracts willing and committed followership
for an initiative, idea or course of action. Followership is primarily
based on relationship. Relationships are based on trust. Leadership
is about innovative thinking, being consciously proactive, taking risks
in the face of uncertainty and building warm and supportive relationships
by behaving with integrity and respect for others. Thinking and behaving
as a leader positions one to influence others regardless of position.
Technical Leadership
Technical Leadership, which includes many of the same
concepts and skills presented in "Influential Leadership",
is specifically
designed for those who work in a technical environment. In addition
to leadership
skills, this seminar
will explore topics including effective information
sharing, networking, innovation and productive risk taking.
Experiential Team Skills Training
Experiential team trainings occur outside or in a large indoor space.
Teams are challenged by non-strenuous but mentally challenging tasks that
invariably reveal existing team patterns and inefficiencies. Insightful
debrief discussions and action planning give rise to specific and powerful
learnings.
The
Art of Productive Conflict
Conflict is inevitable in all human interaction. Differing viewpoints,
when valued and managed consciously, can increase the level and quality
of creativity and innovation. The understanding and respect that results
leads to improved work relationships.
Building
Effective Teams
This workshop series is a dynamic and highly interactive training designed
to give participants a clear understanding and the direct experience of
outstanding team function. Movie clips, simulations and discussions create
a powerful and enjoyable learning experience.
Improving
Performance Under Stress
Most
workplaces are going through increasing pressure and almost constant change.
Increasing levels of stress add to conflict and decrease productivity.
This seminar is packed with skills and knowledge that can lead to dramatic
improvements in ones health, relationships and experience of life and
work.
The
Power of Effective Listening
Listening becomes increasingly difficult as one's mind fills with details
and activity. Miscommunications cause enormous problems for everyone.
This interactive workshop raises awareness and teaches simple yet effective
skills that can lead to significant improvements in one's ability to listen
effectively.
Lifestyle
Management: Achieving Work/Life Balance
Many
of us are experiencing professional responsibilities that are demanding
more and more of our time and energy which can give rise to burnout, marital
disharmony and general dissatisfaction. This workshop explores simple
and achievable ways to create a healthy, balanced lifestyle.
Managing
Change: Creating Inner Stability
Change can be disruptive and stressful. In the absence of external stability,
it becomes imperative that one learns and applies "inner skills" that
generate a sense of internal stability. The tools experienced in this
workshop enable the participant to manage change from a place of confidence
and stability.
