LEADERSHIP

Leadership Theories and Their Application

This two (2) day course reviews several basic, well-known theories of leadership and then explains how they might be utilized to assist today's leaders with their everyday problems and issues. Specifically, it focuses on the Blake-Mouton Leadership Grid, the Path-Goal Theory, Fiedler's Contingency Theory and the Leader Member Exchange Theory. Then, considerable time is spent on the Hersey-Blanchard Situational Leadership Theory. What are the strengths and weaknesses of each of these theories of leadership? Are they applicable in today's business environment? This fast paced course will answer these questions and more.

Results Focused Leadership

This "how to" workshop for creating and leading high performance teams exposes the participants to an 'action learning' experience that will provide practical tools to shift organizational mindset and develop high performance.

General Management Leadership

The purpose of this course is to develop authentic leaders to take responsibility for making and managing the cultural changes needed to successfully execute strategies within their organization. This one (1) or two (2) week program can be tailored to meet the specific needs of your organization. This program focuses on the broad concepts of management/leadership and the challenges of integrating and overseeing different functional areas. It is appropriate either for senior managers who are in, or are moving into a general management role, or for managers who need to expand their focus from a narrower technical perspective to a broader overview.

Emerging Leaders

The overall design of this one (1) week program focuses on the integration of three learning themes: business acumen, individual capability and team performance. This approach is based on the belief that High Performance Organizations are built by integrating high performance processes and high performance teams.

During this program, participants will have the opportunity to examine critical business performance issues facing their business and experience, a learning and engagement methodology designed to address these very difficult challenges. In addition, business functions such as strategy, business plan development, change management, leadership and coaching team members will be covered. This program is appropriate for newer managers headed for increased management and leadership responsibilities.

Change Management via Critical Leadership Thinking

An organization's success is defined by its ability to effect positive change in a timely and cost-effective fashion. This can only be accomplished in an enriched, developmental atmosphere. The atmosphere has to be conducive to change to assure efficiency and effectiveness.

The environmental elements that are necessary for effective change to take place are reviewed and discussed in this 2-day program. Specific "Critical Thinking Skills" are explored and reinforced with case studies and group exercises.

Leading Organizational Change

The design of this 2-day program focuses on change in the structure of an organization, change in technology and change in people. It will also encompass the following topics on how to overcome resistance to organizational change: educating the workforce, creating a learning organization and involving employees in the change effort.

Leadership: Communicating Vision and Direction Across Cultures

Providing dynamic leadership in multicultural organizations requires the ability to converse effectively across cultures. This program integrates current leadership concepts and practices with the cross-cultural perspectives and skills necessary to successfully communicate vision and direction in the ever-changing global business environment.

This two (2) day program will enhance and sharpen the knowledge and skills essential for effective leadership. In particular, emphasis will be given to creating and communicating new vision and direction, as well as the insights required for energizing, today's complex multicultural business organizations. A key to effective leadership in the global arena is inspiring and guiding employees in ways that lead them across the cultural divide.

Executive Coaching

This two day program also includes three personalized one-hour telephone coaching meetings following the group program. The program is designed for the CEO and members of his or her executive team who seek an edge in their leadership and, thus, in their corporation's results. The program also works well for the senior human resources team of a corporation where they both seek improved results and wish to explore executive coaching as a development tool in their corporation. Each participant will have the opportunity to personally experience being coached.

CEO Executive Coaching

The newly appointed CEO typically has a steep learning curve, the need to have no drop in company performance, and the desire to quickly begin to improve results. They may also have inherited a new executive team. To add to the challenge there is no one on the board or inside the company who has a completely independent view and who is also 100% committed to the new CEO's success. In this situation, a seasoned executive coach can be a valued ally and can help the CEO achieve a successful start-up in their new role.
