One of the most challenging learnings is taking on a leadership role. Promotion to a position of authority, becoming the boss, doesn’t necessarily make you a leader; others must follow willingly to truly solidify your leadership.
If you currently work within an organization and have been promoted into a leadership role, this course will provide you with valuable insight and guidance.
In this course, we will examine the key elements of leadership and how you can build a strong leadership foundation:
• First, why am I a leader? Did I sign up for this?
• Every leader is unique – examine your strengths and weaknesses.
• The difference between Visionary Leadership and Functional Leadership
• What are the key elements of Functional leadership (RESULTS + RELATIONSHIPS)
• Building relationships with your team – you are only as good as your TEAM.
• Be an advocate for your team - “I’ve got your back.”
• Developing a team – What is the team culture, and do you have the right people?
• Making tough decisions
• What does success look like for you and your team?
• Managing Results - coordinate, cooperate, and collaborate.
• The Changing Workplace – Managing Remotely.
• Managing UP to your boss - challenges/rewards
• Building a legacy – How do you want to be remembered?
