Testimonial
COO at a Major University who has taken the program with her team and has all new employees go through the program as a cohort once a year.
"I loved this training. I thought it was such a great approach for getting people the basics on Positive Leadership principles in an easy way. As every employee finds small ways to apply what they have learned, we have found our culture continues to improve and we deliver better outcomes."
Program Approach
This program is designed to for teams, small cohorts or as a two people who will act as accountability partners.
Research by Ovolio & others have made it clear that the purpose of workshops, books and other learning opportunities is to build enough belief in the learner to want to go and experiment or create a new experience. Managers & Leaders develop as they have new experiences and take time to reflect on those experiences. This program will have you spend 30 minutes early in the week watching 2 short videos, reading 1 article and doing a reflection exercise to help you come up with an action you can take by tweaking something in your day-to-day work. There will be questions to at the end of the week to help you reflect on new action that you took during the week. Ideally, you will then meet with your team, cohort or accountability partner to discuss what you learned from the videos, article and action you took.
