Two-Day Workshop
High Performance Leadership
Supervising for Success
High Performance Leadership is a two-day workshop for front line supervisors and people moving into leadership roles.
It is ideal for leaders seeking to get started quickly and sharpen their front line leadership skills.
Participants explore and practice the key leadership strengths of courage, creativity, clarity, and compassion while developing the leadership skills of communicating for results, building your team, improving performance, and solving problems.
Leaders at the front lines have so much to offer their people and yet they are pulled in multiple directions. High Performance Leadership prepares you to more clearly define, center, and balance your roles as a leader so that you can begin to experience improved performance from your people -- and from yourself.
During this highly interactive, real-situation based training leaders explore, practice, and put into action the leadership skills that are most needed at the front lines of supervising, including:
Courage: Practicing the strength and character it takes to face and act on meaningful challenges in support of people and purpose.
Compassion: Caring for other people, their feelings, needs and dreams.
Creativity: Distilling and developing ideas into innovative products and services. Keeping an open mind and exploring new territory constantly.
Clarity: Refining, improving, analyzing, and covering details clearly, openly, honestly, and with absolute integrity. Reducing ambiguity and eliminating hidden agendas.
Centering: Staying focused and grounded in the face of conflict, stress, and challenge.
High Performance Leadership includes:

Solving Problems
Creating the Collaborative Space for Success
How leaders approach problems determines their destiny.
What if you could solve problems, drive change, and improve performance faster and better?
Most problems can be solved. While some "unsolvable" problems must be managed in order to maintain a high performance team environment, far too many problems go unsolved because the people involved miss working out a reasonable solution.
Often, this is due to change efforts that are not scaled correctly, implemented effectively, or involving the right people. If everything looks like a problem, it's easy to lose track of what does work. Often, the most powerful seeds of change exist in what is already working .
As leaders, we must address our most pressing problems and do what we can to solve, or manage them. Our results depend on it. And how we bring about change will determine whether or not we achieve our goals.
It's not magic, but collaborating effectively with people who are invested in leading change can feel magical, especially when the results lead to more cohesive teams, deeper conversations, more effective processes, more creative innovations, and happier customers.
Working together to facilitate change and as prime and vital opportunity builds relationships as it improves bottom line results.
More than a training, Solving Problems and Improving Performance is a facilitated creative transformation process. You'll participate with a group of energized individuals and collaborate on changes that can be launched immediately and set you on a path for achieving your goals faster, smarter, and better.
You will look at change differently and embrace it with the enthusiasm and skill of an artist at work.
