Agenda

Jan. 31, Feb. 1- 2  | 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

Module 1: From Technical Expert to Strategic Leader 

Moving from the role of technical expert to leader requires a unique set of skills much broader than expertise itself. Participants will learn how to: 

  • Describe the four stages of leader evolution and the shifts in perspective, skill, and behavior 
  • Define how to build a base of personal competence and credibility 
  • Discuss the skills and techniques needed to build organizational capacity 
  • Operate at a strategic business level 

February 14-15-16 | 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

Module 2: Understanding Business Strategy: Decision-Making and Disruptive Thinking 

Learn to turn challenges into opportunities through this highly interactive and hands-on course. Using a case study format, teams follow the story of a struggling company trying to survive in an ever-changing business climate. Participants must evaluate the market, analyze information to determine customer needs and strategize to pursue the right customers and the right markets. Gain shared insights about your company’s pressing issues and the way forward. Determine how critical decision-thinking traps may be holding you back. Realize how small improvements can affect the bottom line, set priorities, define key challenges and gain a broad understanding of your company’s key concerns and influential factors. 

March 21-22-23  | 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

Module 3: Creating Thoughtfully Fit Teams

Leading a team of high performers is challenging, especially in a fast-paced, high-stress environment. In this engaging workshop, participants will learn how to create teams that flourish. We’ll explore how having individuals with diverse personalities and work styles make the strongest teams, and yet often ones with the greatest conflict. Learn about the four stages of team development and leave with a specific tool to improve communication within teams: designing a team alliance.

April 11-12-13  | 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

Module 4: Transitioning to an Executive Role: What It Takes to Take the Lead 

What is an executive and what does it take to be successful in a new executive role? This course is designed for those who are currently transitioning to an executive role or are designated to do so in the near future. In a workshop-style, hybrid seminar, we discuss the key differences between managing individual contributors and leading other leaders when it comes to decision-making, strategy deployment, organizational and team development, and communication. We explore the capabilities, attitude and behavior necessary to make the transition and the roadblocks that may prevent success.  You will leave the seminar with a customized action plan for your own executive evolution, complete with detailed activities for transitioning with success.
