As an executive during these turbulent times, you know better than anyone what pressures are being placed on your job.  Never before have leadership skills been so necessary for success.  Organizations expect performance and innovation from executives, particularly in times like these.  They expect executives to be able to successfully operate in the new flattened organizational structure, leveraging the available resources to achieve significant results.

Leadership at an executive level demands special skills.  You must use power and influence adeptly to achieve goals.  You must make organizational politics work for  you.  You must have the ability to build teams and alliances across departments, establishing strong communication and working relationships with peers, employees and other teams - get people who don't work for you to work for you!

Traditional roles are a thing of the past.  You're expected to be a coach, mentor and motivator.  To be a successful leader, you must take the time to understand the difficult situations managers can face and provide coaching and direction.  You must be willing and able to handle difficult people and situations, make tough decisions, and manage performance at every level.  It's more than just getting the job done - it's developing others in the process.

Developing Executive Leadership is an intensive, practical two-day seminar that is specifically designed to optimize your effectiveness and enable you to meet the challenges of today's business and economic environment.  It will not only build on your existing leadership skills, it will show you how to employ leadership as a strategic tool.  It will enable you to move ahead with carefully structured action plans.

This seminar clearly demonstrates that effective leadership stems from the head and the heart.  You need to be able to define and articulate the strategic vision of your company, contribute to the building of an innovative organizational culture and working climate, make new goals meaningful and understandable.  You must establish and embed core values.  Use mission, vision and value statements as energizing forces, and encourage creativity and intelligent risk taking.

Above all, leadership means doing everything it takes to optimize your company's performance.  “Business as usual” has no place in the vocabulary of today's executive.  You must be an instrument of change and innovation.  In short, you must make things happen!
