Diversity Training for better Performance & Leadership
The Leading Edge:
Longer description: Leadership is a common buzzword but this workshop is anything but common. Learn the four cornerstones of effective leadership that will enable you to take your place on the leading edge.
1. Improvisation, innovation and creativity: Improvisers find security in the continual exploration of risks. As the saying goes “Follow the fear and it will set you free.” Like a firefighter moving to a fire, improvisers face the risks of spontaneous creativity. And the risks bring great rewards. Cutting edge research clearly demonstrates the power of transferring improv skills to the work place.
2. Fostering teamwork and cooperative cultures: Teamwork and cooperation go hand in hand with leadership and Laughing Matters makes sure your grip is tight. While competition has its place, it can often displace genuine communication and innovation. We help you pinpoint how to increase cooperation and make it stick.
3. Communicating with confidence: Increasing your awareness of your own communication style is the first step towards more effective communication that gets your message across and allows you to fully hear others.
4. Vision planning and implementation: With vision and panache we help you put it all together to lead not only for today but also for tomorrow. We look at the steps you can take to develop your vision, to guide your organization through the strategic planning process, and to help implement your plans with confidence and purpose. We then step back to help you take an encompassing view of how your values, principles, and philosophies can come together to help realize your vision. From vision to reality, we help you make it happen.
