Leading Well: Relating to Others

Course Description

Part of the Leading Well workshop series, this one-day course focuses on leadership fundamentals, such as critical thinking and emotional intelligence. You will explore matching various management styles to meet the challenges and needs of changing environments; the best ways to communicate with employees, senior leaders, and peers; and challenges, such as leading multigenerational workforces and managing former peers. Through hands-on exercises, you will learn how to lead versus manage, conduct successful coaching conversations, and avoid “analysis paralysis," which is a common frustration for executives.
