Now You're In Charge: Building and Establishing Credibility with Your Employees | Lynne Richards
As a leader, establishing credibility is the corner- stone of your effectiveness. Leaders who are credible are better able to build relationships, control and manage work, and get things done. What is credibility? How do you develop it? And just as important, who needs to believe you are credible? In this session you’ll discover how others define credibility. You’ll learn eight strategies for gaining the trust of your boss, your employees, and key members of your organization.
Work Teams and The Wizard of Oz | Lynne Richards
Since 1939, MGM’s film, The Wizard of Oz, has delighted and entertained audiences of all ages and backgrounds. “I have a feeling we are not in Kansas anymore,” Dorothy tells Toto with awe. Not so different from our own experiences in today’s changing organizations, where we find ourselves in unfamiliar territory and are asked to perform the impossible. Learn how this timeless story depicts the most basic framework of teamwork and team member roles. Recognize the seven keys to effective teamwork and how we too can achieve the impossible with creative thinking, courage and heart and that the most powerful “Wizard” of all, lives within us.
Ways of Knowing: Beginning the Journey into Equity & Inclusion| Susan Ahl
In this two-part workshop (both afternoon sessions), join facilitator Susan Ahl as we explore what it means to belong.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion has become a “hot” topic for many organizations. What does it mean for us, and how do we respond within our roles and relationships? Using leadership development tools to provide a framework for understanding; we’ll dive into self-reflection, exploration of resources, and thinking through strategies for applying what we learn. Whether the concepts of DEI are new to you, or you are someone already immersed in it, you’ll find ways to build awareness and connection in a safe and interactive environment.
