Successful Leadership of Managers

Learn how to elevate leaders into strategic influencers who build high-performing teams.

Most organizations have strong operational leaders. Many ascended to their leadership roles from the ranks of managers and supervisors and are adept in their operational abilities. They tend to work to maintain the status quo. Now they are charged with leading managers. Leading managers is a different game. It requires shifting from doing the work to developing the people who lead the work. Organizations in the 21st century require strategic leaders. Leaders that challenge the prevailing view, that can act on big and small picture items at the same time and can change course as needed. They need to lead with inquiry, engagement and advocacy while operating from a deeply held humility and respect for others. This course equips leaders at every level with the mindset, tools and strategies needed to guide other leaders - ensuring alignment, accountability and culture where teams thrive. This course will help you to take the steps necessary to move towards greater strategic leadership. It will focus on best practices and practical strategies that will guide executive leaders in incorporating strategic leadership components. Participants explore what it means to lead through influence rather than control, how to coach managers effectively and how to build systems that empower leaders to make sound decisions, navigate conflict and model organizational values
