Is your team performing at their max potential?

It’s a leader’s responsibility to develop their team, so if the team isn’t performing their best, it may be the leader that needs further development. Most leaders learned how to do so by observing the mentors and leaders they worked under; however, many have not had formal training on having an effective 1:1, addressing underperformance, analyzing metrics, creating vision, or maintaining accountability, just to name a few. You can increase the performance of the pack through increasing the performance of its leader. Below, you’ll find a list of featured topics that delve deeper into each of these key areas.

To take an organization to the next level, you must grow the leaders. However, many leaders have never had formal training on the essential, universal principles of leadership or the time-tested how-to’s of management. This session will show you the “best of the best” leadership principles and management skills that will provide an immediate uptick in a leader’s ability to drive results through other people.

Every leader dreams of a team who achieves targets, meets deadlines, and stays focused, but often, they take the team’s goal-setting ability and desire for granted. People have to be trained how to set goals and taught the difference between strong goals and goals that are set so poorly, they will never be achieved. In this program, leaders will learn clear principles surrounding goal-setting and how to teach it to their teams.

Social media is now a critical piece of every organization’s marketing strategy, however, more than 50% of organizations don’t have an intentional, managed, and executed strategy around their digital presence. This training will show you everything you need to know about putting together a proper social media and technology plan to measurably drive profits. 

One of the most common mistakes leaders make is training every team member the same way, instead of adapting and meeting people where they’re at. This can help avoid frustration and turnover. This training introduces leaders to the Skill/Will Matrix, which teaches them how to segment their team members so they can adapt their leadership style to what each individual actually needs.

Do you know how to motivate your team? Many organizations struggle to solve the mystery of what keeps their team working harder, faster, and smarter. This interactive training session will answer that question by introducing the 8 drivers of human motivation. We’ll also develop a plan to ensure your people stay motivated, engaged, and productive for the long term. 

For the first time in history, there are four different and distinct generations in the workplace. Those different generations prefer different communication mediums and have different expectations, which can lead to conflict. These dynamics can present an extremely challenging task for managers. In this training, leaders will learn how to alter their communication style so that every generation on your team is a productive one.

How are diversity and inclusion talked about in your workplace? Is diversity valued? Is inclusion discussed and pursued? Leaders agree that we need diversity and inclusion training, but they don’t know where to start. Consequently, many organizations have yet to adopt practices that truly promote inclusion. Diversity and inclusion training is designed to increase participants’ cultural awareness, knowledge, and communication skills. Organizations that focus on these values benefit from better teamwork and improved performance.

A healthy, positive, and uplifting work environment is crucial for top producers to do their best, but what exactly does that entail? What really motivates people to work at their full potential? This training will reveal the key elements every team must have to keep their people engaged and driving results. It will also serve as a needed check-up that will reveal what you need to take your organization to the next level.

Accountability is key for driving performance in a team, but many leaders aren’t sure how to properly hold their people accountable, which can lead to disengagement, deflated performance, and even turnover. This insightful training will change the way you and your team members view accountability and will provide you with the data-driven methods to implement accountability the right way.

Many people feel stressed out, overloaded, and behind. They don’t feel like they have enough time because they are still using outdated time management strategies. This course presents groundbreaking findings that will give you the emotional permission you need to eliminate, automate, and delegate to actually create more time.

Every leader wants a team of people who are all marching in the same direction, working together, and motivated to achieve a common goal. But often, leaders have the opposite because they don’t have a clear shared mission, vision, or values. In this powerful program, we explain the difference between the three and why having each is essential. We will even help you with the process of creating and implementing your CREED. This program will change the trajectory of your organization.

Dealing with confrontation is a key responsibility of any leader, but most of the time, it’s also one of their least favorite activities. Luckily, it doesn’t have to be. In this training, you will develop a new understanding of confrontation and learn methodologies to comfortably give feedback, inspire growth, create accountability, and develop people to the next level.

A leader’s ability to be aware of and effectively manage their emotions as well as the emotions of others (their EQ) is a greater predictor of leadership success than intellectual intelligence (their IQ). However, most people in management roles have never been trained on emotional management. As a result, their emotions and habits can negatively impact the development of their team and they can fail to demonstrate the empathy necessary to move people to change. This program is a deep-dive into the four elements of emotional intelligence. When you can understand and control your own emotions, you will better relate to your team members, which will ultimately lead to deeper connections and the elevated performance of your team.
