OVERVIEW:

This is the foundational program. You’ll learn the essential skill of diagnosing the performance needs of individuals and teams and the “how to” of working with and through them to get the job done -- while maintaining a positive work environment. Once you’ve mastered the basics of the “model” we’ll work on how it can be applied to help you to develop others and to reverse “slipping performance.  We’ll spend time analyzing and interpreting the results of your LEAD Self-assessment and end the day with an energetic session with the Situational Simulator.  Throughout, you’ll be considering how the Situational Leadership® model can best be leveraged to meet your leadership challenges both personally and organizationally.
