Course Description
This workshop will cover three of the most important components for being an effective leader that people want to follow. We’ll start with what is likely the single most important skill in all interpersonal relationships…your ability to build trust. Then, we’ll explore how we can more effectively help our teammates and team members to become more engaged in their work. Finally, we’ll round out the big three by learning how to cultivate an atmosphere where accountability is a reality. By developing these three leadership tools, you can increase your personal influence and help your team to produce better results.
Course Objectives
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
Recognize the three ways trust is built and the five motivators that will multiply employee engagement, then create a plan for exploiting those for the good of the entire organization.
Discover strategies to lessen the effects of a loss of trust and shorten the time it takes to repair damaged trust.
Understand 5 “misses” that can cause trust to be damaged or lost, and how you can begin to rebuild it.
Learn how to identify and eliminate the 3 main causes of employee disengagement.
Discover 6 specific steps you can initiate to reengage your team members.
Tap into each person’s Core Values, Primary Motivators, and Personal Aspirations to maximize productivity and results.
Eliminate the perception that confronting poor performance and infusing an atmosphere of accountability requires an inordinate amount of time and that it can’t happen without causing personal conflict.
Identify the contributors that make accountability uncomfortable and ways to overcome those.
Realize how important the WHERE and WHEN of accountability are in the effectiveness of it.
Leave this presentation with a seven-step approach to conduct a non-emotional corrective conversation that will allow you to hold team members accountable without the drama that often accompanies such confrontations.
