Course Synopsis

This is an interactive course designed to provide a solid foundation in key leadership competencies and to provide you with the opportunity for a truly transformational leadership experience. As a participant, you will complete a self-assessment of your leadership skills, then master the basics of these leadership competencies: setting direction, aligning people, motivating and inspiring, leading teams, communicating, building relationships, facilitating ethical conduct, negotiating, and leading change.

After you assess your skills, you’ll create and refine a personal leadership vision and work on strengthening your leadership competencies as you develop your personal Leadership Development Plan. You’ll learn how to empower yourself and other team members through more effective negotiation based on an understanding of the differences between competitive and collaborative negotiation approaches and you’ll gain an appreciation of the importance of a collaborative “win/win” negotiation process.

You will gain a clear understanding of why communication is so important - regardless of how a project is organized. You will discover how business and personal ethics can influence your leadership style and personality, and how your individual leadership style and personality can influence the course a project will take.
