Course Overview
This cutting edge neuroscience-based leadership course builds a range of managers’ leadership, results, personal attributes, and relationship capabilities in developing their employees to higher performance, higher engagement and better results through use of our pioneering ‘every day coaching culture leadership’ methodology. The practice empowers team members, helping them to think for themselves more, and take more personal responsibility for a solution-focused approach through a leader’s ‘teach them to fish’ approach and find their own solutions rather than being told. It builds collaboration and improves communication at all levels.
Learning Outcomes
- Take back to the workplace every day coaching culture leadership skills to improve performance and engagement
- Vastly improve communication, resilience and motivating staff into action
- Understand the importance of emotional factors on themselves and others
- Understand the working of the brain and how this knowledge is applied to have better coaching conversations in the workplace (and beyond)
- Thorough understanding of peak performance and situational coaching
- Practical techniques to deal with staff, peers and self, plus improved communication and listening skills.
ZOOM Virtual Classroom
Our virtual classroom consists of a facilitator teaching the class to students who are dialled in remotely to the class session. Presentation slides and other digital files can be presented during the training session using the Zoom platform and the student may either focus on these resources or the facilitator.
To enable connection, you will require the following set-up:
- Sufficient internet connection – Zoom is successful on a 4G network. Any network better than 4G will enhance the student’s experience;
- A PC with a web-camera, microphone and the capacity to run the Zoom application to allow the facilitator to better interact with students in the same manner as a traditional classroom; and
- Sufficient sized monitor or screen to support the number of students in the room.
