Program Details:
This program is designed to prepare the participant for their first level supervisory/leadership role and grow the skillsets required for success and is targeted at employees who are currently in individual contributor roles and have shown the potential to advance to supervisory positions with one or more direct reports, or those who aspire to be leaders.
Leadership Readiness focuses on responsibility changes between individual contributor roles and leadership roles and provides participants the know-how to build stronger formal and informal leadership skills so that they can become more effective and influential regardless of assuming a leadership role.
What Participants Will Discover:
- Understand how tasks of a leader differ from tasks of an individual contributor
- Understand your leadership baseline
- Gain insights into your behavioural tendencies when you: communicate with others, interact within a team, attempt to influence others, deal with change, solve problems, are in conflict, manage stress
- Hone skills associated with: achieving results (including time management), shifting from “what’s” to “what’s and how’s”, creating leadership presence, building greater self-awareness, responsibility, accountability, reliability and dependability, building peer relationships, developing cultural/political awareness, managing conflict and difficult conversations
- Use tools, self-reflection and discussion opportunities to examine the leadership skills participants currently do and do not demonstrate.
- Develop a stronger purposeful network within their organization.
