INTRODUCTION
Think of the leaders you most admire. They
seem to easily juggle competing demands, confidently motivate their teams to
achieve optimum results, effectively navigate across the organization, and
never lose their composure. These executives make the job look simple—but it’s
not.
Designed to help managers become more effective leaders, this program delves
into the fundamentals of managing yourself, leading teams, and motivating
others to accomplish your company’s goals. Through relevant readings, case
discussions, and introspective exercises, you will gain a broader and deeper
understanding of organizational culture and dynamics, management best
practices, the role of the manager, and the nature of influence. As you explore
your own personality, strengths, and weaknesses, you will begin to evolve a
leadership style that is uniquely yours. You will return to work with newfound
confidence and an action plan for continuing your growth as a leader.
