Leading in very turbulent times
Engage. Grow. Enable. Resile.
The main purpose of this workshop is to explore the role and skills of team and organisational leaders, as they face a very turbulent environment. What is it that employees and colleagues need from their leaders when there is so much uncertainty?
The course is suitable for experienced managers and team leaders who are looking for greater performance from their staff and new ways of engaging and inspiring them. The content is relevant for managers having to deal with staff who are working remotely.
This training course consists of two parts:
Part One – Leadership when things are turbulent
The first module will discuss the uncertainty that comes from a changing environment (the coronavirus pandemic, for example) and the role that leadership plays in reassuring followers.
Topics:
Leadership role – Why leadership? Why now? A look at the role that leadership plays in our professional lives, as well as the environmental context that makes it increasingly necessary.
What does the latest research tell us about the characteristics of successful leaders? Why do we follow them? Traits, Skills and Behaviours – What can we apply to our own professional lives? How will leadership change things? How will we know? The role of humility.
Leadership strategy and execution – What do effective leaders do? Setting direction and having the courage to abandon previously successful behaviours.
Part Two – Leaders as Agents of Change
This module will be much more fluid and responsive to the issues identified on Day One. The aim is to explore new techniques, suggestions and practice around being more influential. We will explore ideas and practice skills on:
the ‘art’ of influencing; engaging commitment and building trust and creating powerful and inclusive networks.
Topics:
Leadership and viral change. What makes change contagious?
Influencing others – Communicating change and the importance of ‘social proof’.
Power of networking – Networks of the curious and the co-operative.
Taking the next step in your leadership journey. Creating peer coaching partnerships.
