Authentic, Empathetic leadership
Our “Inside Out Leadership’ development programme supports your current and future managers by providing a powerful learning environment to explore, challenge and develop beliefs and behaviours.
Our groups become a fantastic source of both support and valuable insight for participants, developing relationships that can continue beyond the formal small-group process and don’t depend on the facilitator to be sustained. The benefits of a group environment encourage leaders to seek out and create more connections at work.
Who is it for?
This is for any manager in your business that wants to learn and improve. Whether it’s someone who’s already made the step up to senior management or you’re preparing them for it, our leadership programme can help your managers become leaders.
There are training courses and guidance but helping people to find their own managerial and leadership style by exploring how they perceive, think and respond will help create authentic and emotionally intelligent leaders.
What will attendees learn?
They’ll develop greater self-awareness which improves their ability to consider alternative perspectives and think ‘differently allowing them to develop and articulate their authentic leadership style.
What’s covered?
The programme will help participants explore three key areas:
The Individual
Organisations or businesses can give managers tools and techniques, but how they perceive and then react to work situations will sometimes be driven by long held thinking patterns which may not be helpful. We help individuals explore how their beliefs, values, assumptions and life experiences might impact at work. This process raises awareness and helps individuals to challenge their own thinking and develop their ability to look at situations from different perspectives.
The workplace and role
This focuses on exploring the context the individual may find themselves in as a manager and how they deal with situations that take them out of their comfort zone. We will help participants to see what may be limiting them at work and challenge their perceptions. Situations for exploration might be perfectionism, confidence, imposter syndrome and having difficult conversations.
Developing a leadership style
We explore different leadership styles and how participants can start to develop their own authentic leadership style. Looking at where bias towards a style or way of working might impact the empowerment and development of others. Building an effective team vs, a team of effective individuals. Other areas to explore might include, the environment leaders create with their behaviours and effective delegation.
What’s the format?
We find half day workshops work well and can adjust the format and timeframes to suit the needs of the client, so just get in touch to see how we can help.
