The Key to Developing Extraordinary Leaders
Is your organization serious about developing extraordinary leaders?
For years managers, HR professionals and countless authors have been talking a good game about growing “effective” leaders. Some organizations have offered leadership skills training programs of every conceivable kind. But seldom does such training impact the quality of leadership!
In this presentation, find out how to upgrade your managers’ current internal “operating system” to “leadership 2.0.”
Some managers clearly do excel as leaders. They bring out the very best in their employees. But the reality is that most units are headed up by well meaning, dedicated, hard working, yet uninspiring leaders. As a consequence, all too often unit results fall short of what they could be.
It doesn’t have to be this way! Recent research has revealed the kind of leaders that are able to master complex challenges and get greater results. Most managers have the capacity to transform themselves into what their employees would describe as their “best boss ever.”
Here’s what you will learn:
- Critical capacities your leaders need in order to succeed in today’s complex environment
- The internal shift they must make to generate extraordinary results
- How leadership development is linked to adult development
- Outcome-creating vs. problem-reacting approaches to leadership
- How your organization’s internal processes and practices can support the development “journey” of your leaders
Particularly suited for:
- Executives and senior managers who seek a leadership development approach that will actually result in more effective leaders.
- Professionals in Human Resources, Talent Management and Training who advise senior management around leadership development.
