Overview
Navigating a successful transition from manager to leader in your organization begins with an honest evaluation of both your skill set and your mindset. The qualities that made you an effective manager may not completely align with the expectations of a new leadership role. Understanding the key differences between management and leadership, and then reflecting on your skills, knowledge, and style will help you identify the gaps and outline a strategy for developing your leadership skills. In this session, we will explore the unique skills and behaviors that will boost your leadership effectiveness and expand your organizational influence.
Session Objectives
In this highly interactive workshop, you will:
• Examine your current management/leadership style
• Identify critical leadership skills and behaviors
• Share strategies and best practices with peers
• Develop a personal action plan to enhance your leadership profile
Who Should Attend
Professionals in leadership roles who spend most of their time doing management activities rather than leading their team or initiative
