Class Description

Join a highly interactive exploration of how to adapt your leadership approach to people in different situations. Practice four leadership styles to deal more effectively with people who are either new to a task, negative about their work, insecure about their ability or sufficiently skilled to handle assignments independently. Learn how to avoid being a micromanager as well as a macromanager and to give critical feedback to people without creating defensiveness. Participants will be required to complete a 20-question online assessment in advance and bring their report to class. In-class activities will include videos, case studies, role plays, small group as well as class discussions and analysis of their personalized reports.

Objectives:

• Identify and expand your current leadership “comfort zone.”
• Explain and practice four different styles of leadership.
• Explore the importance of adaptability and flexibility;
• Determine which leadership style is best for a particular situation.
• Recognize the consequences of over-supervision and under-supervision. 
• Develop a personal action plan to apply behaviors and principles.

Target Audience: Directors, Managers and Team Leaders

Pre-Assessment: A week prior to the workshop, each participant will receive a link to complete an online assessment, which will generate a personal report to bring to class.
