Fair isn’t everyone getting the same thing; fair is everyone getting what he or she needs in order to be successful.
In this workshop, we discuss and explore a variety of ways to make the most impact on your organization as a leader or manager. We cover topics from unconscious behaviors and their impact to the differences between impact and intent and how to hold people accountable in a positive way. Participants will be able to role play in scenarios that address communication, engagement, learning vs. judging, self esteem vs. self-perception, and feedback. The scenarios are designed to provide insight into the individual’s management needs and the practice to take the skills back to the workplace immediately.
