Trust is foundational to everything leaders do and plays a major role in enabling organizational success, talent retention and customer loyalty.  Leaders are not entitled to the trust of their people; you must earn it by the way you behave toward them.  Building a Climate of Trust provides you with the opportunity to create individual and unique “trust equations” that you can apply with your team to establish integrity and drive business results. Through this session, you will identify key behaviors that will enable you to build and maintain an environment of trust and create an action plan for long-term sustainability.

  • Understand a spectrum of business-specific consequences when trust does or does not exist
  • Create a Trust Equation that represents a formula for success for the team or organization
  • Define the elements of the trust equation to ensure integration and alignment of intention, thought, communication and action
  • Identify gaps between the current and ideal states of trust
  • Create action plans to close the gaps and accelerate trust and confidence
  • Consider what is needed to sustain trust and confidence over the long-term

Given the current realities for business and the state of the talent and job marketplace, the single most important determinant of organizational success is its people. Leading employees that value inclusion, work-life balance, and well-being, requires you to pay close attention to the relationships you build with your employees. Strengthening your ability to build trust within your team will establish a solid foundation to retain a strong workforce.

The skills of providing ongoing coaching and feedback have never been more critical.  Employees are no longer satisfied with mid-year and year-end performance discussions.  Infrequent coaching does not generate the performance required to achieve winning business outcomes.  Employees who consistently meet personal, departmental, and business goals maximize their contribution to the organization and enhance their careers.  It is important for leaders to help ensure that their employees stay on track in meeting their goals and coaching is vital to accomplishing this. 

  • Understand the importance of feedback and coaching for unleashing employee talent, impacting careers, and achieving performance results
  • Understand the elements of effective coaching
  • Gain insight into your coaching style and capabilities

Often it is assumed that organizational change is just about work processes, systems, structures, or strategy.  Arguably, the most critical factor in the success of any organizational change is how people are lead and managed.  Given this, effective leadership is mandatory to achieve successful change.

Leading through change can be an especially difficult task because you are not only required to manage the reactions of your team members to change; you are also expected to manage your own reactions. This session helps you become clear about the role of leadership during change and to increase your confidence and competence in leading through times of change by understanding the process of change itself and exploring effective leadership tools and strategies.

  • Describe the business context surrounding change in your organization
  • Identify your role as a leader during change
  • Describe the emotional journey typically associated with change
  • Adopt strategies and good practices to manage your own reactions and to lead others through change

Changes in your business and department will succeed based on your effectiveness as a leader in leading your people through change in practical ways. By strengthening your approach in leading change, you will positively impact the pace and extent to which others embrace change.

1/2 Day Module • Online or In-Person
