Maximizing Your Leadership Potential

Managing others requires new skills to handle new challenges. Maximizing Your Leadership Potential guides participants in making the shift from successful individual contributor to effective manager — one of the biggest and most difficult transitions for any leader.

This program is designed to cultivate the four key roles that all leaders must play to garner success: team player, manager, coach and leader. Meeting the needs of diverse teams present new challenges that require new skills. In an effort to understand and motivate others, a leader must shift their mindset from “me” to “we”.

As a result of attending this new manager course, participants will acquire the ability to:

• Understand how their personality impacts their role as a member of a team.
• Align intention and impact to become more effective communicators and leaders across organizational and geographical boundaries.
• Deliver and receive effective feedback, and manage conflict and resistance.
• Increase effectiveness when collaborating with others
• Use CCL’s Direction-Alignment-Commitment™ framework as a tool to help facilitate better conversations.

Maximizing Your Leadership Potential focuses on the different roles and mindsets of managing people and projects (player, coach, manager, and leader). Within that framework, our new manager training addresses the following skills:

• Developing Self-Awareness
• Giving and Receiving Feedback
• Managing Performance Conversations
• Listening to Understand
• Coaching & Developing Others
• Influencing With and Without Authority
• Building the Capacity for Direction, Alignment and Commitment
