9:00-9:15am | Welcome 

9:15am-12:00pm | So You’re the Boss – Now What? - J.T. O'Donnell
Whether you had time to prepare or not, you’ve found yourself in a new position with supervisory responsibilities. This interactive session will provide you with a focused plan to make the transition to supervisor as seamless as possible. Beginning with a self-inventory, you will take stock of your current personal skillset, and discuss the importance of habits as a way to define yourself as a leader. You will then map out the first (or next) 90 days in your new position, focusing on shifting your thinking from a “task” orientation to a strategic orientation. You will then develop a checklist to help you successfully evolve your relationships with direct reports, peers, and the leadership team, and build a strong foundation in your new role.

12:00-1:00pm | Lunch

1:00-2:15pm | Employee Engagement: Boosting Commitment & Motivation - David Liddell
Engagement begins when a working environment inspires employees, helps them feel vested in your business, and drives them to work with the best interests of the company in mind. Your employees are the recipients of the culture created by your leadership. True employee engagement requires organizational leaders to stop telling employees what to do, and help them understand what they need to achieve to be successful. This workshop will help you…

  • Diagnose the levels of engagement in your organization
  • Determine key success measures of engagement
  • Understand how engagement impacts employees’ behavior and customer retention
  • Learn how leadership behavior drives engagement
  • Determine what you can do to increase employee engagement in your company

You will gain an understanding of the concepts and skills necessary to empower the people in your organization. Employee engagement can give your team members the ability to make a real and lasting impact on every aspect of your business, ensuring better communication, committed employees, and organizational success.

2:15-2:30pm | Break

2:30-3:45pm | Emotional Intelligence: Your Pathway to Personal Growth - David Liddell
People with higher levels of Emotional Intelligence (EQ) have greater ability to recognize their behaviors, moods, and impulses to communicate with others effectively, manage change, solve problems, and build rapport in difficult situations. They also have empathy, remain optimistic even in the face of adversity, and are gifted at influencing others to achieve the best outcomes in business and in life. This workshop will help you… 

  • Learn the essential elements of EQ; self-management, self-awareness, self-regulation, self-motivation, and empathy.
  • Grasp the process of emotional intelligence.
  • Identify the four different paradigms by which people experience situations.
  • Realize how you respond to challenging events (key moments).
  • Explore and understand the patterns in your responses to key moments.
  • Understand a process for arriving at stronger and more effective outcomes.

You will gain an understanding of the concepts and skills necessary to increase trust and respect with co-workers, achieve consensus among teammates faster and without misunderstandings, and remove the headaches that come from miscommunication and misunderstanding.
