Creative Leadership Seminar
This is not your ordinary leadership course!
This is training for today's
leaders — people like you who are pulled in a million different
directions, expected to get more done with fewer resources, and force to cope
with budget cuts, corporate crises, reduction of employee benefits, hiring and
wage freezes, and much more. These tougher times call for creativity and
innovation in leadership, and that's why this revolutionary new course was
developed.
In one day of
lightning-paced, high-energy training, you'll learn techniques for
turbo-charging your leadership skills and getting your employees on track for
super performance and a lot more productivity. You'll learn how to support an
environment of creativity, innovation, and passion, regardless of what type of
company you work for. You'll learn once and for all what people need from their
leaders, and even more important, you'll learn exactly how to give it to them.
You'll discover new ideas
for motivating your best talent to continue performing at the top of their game,
while giving your less-than-stellar performers the encouragement they need to
really shine. You'll explore ways to tap into your own personal leadership
strengths, minimize your weaknesses, and develop a unique leadership style that
is highly effective, yet reflects your core beliefs and personality.
Fun, fast, and highly
effective, this training will stimulate your thinking, recharge your batteries,
and spark your outside-the-lines creativity as you inspire your employees to
excellence.
