This unique two-day Authentic Leadership Course, allows you to explore your strengths and gain new tools to lead with confidence and skill. The following four topics are covered to help you transform your leadership:
Topic #1: Leadership Styles using DISC
DISC leadership profiles leverage personal preferences to help carve the actionable path you need to become a more authentic leader. Gain new awareness around your own leadership style and strengths, as well as those of others to be able to communicate and motivate more effectively.
Topic #2: Emotional Intelligence (EQ)
By now, EQ needs little introduction, it’s no secret that it is critical to successful leadership. But knowing what EQ is and knowing how to use it to improve your leadership, are two very different things. Expect to learn practical tips about how to apply the concepts of self-awareness, self-regulation, self-motivation, empathy, and social skills to be build a more genuine connection with others.
Topic #3: Feedback & Difficult Conversations
Difficult conversations aren’t just part of a leader’s job - they are at the very core of it. Leaders will learn hands-on tips to lead more productive conversations, whether it be with staff, peers, clients, or other stakeholders. Providing effective feedback, as well as receiving new insights are an essential part of continuously developing leadership skills.
Topic #4: Storytelling as a Communication Tool
Most leadership skills are a direct result of life experiences and how we make sense of these to ourselves and others, is in the form of story. Storytelling supports stronger emotional connections and helps convey technical information in a compelling manner. Participants will learn how to harvest their own stories and communicate these in a meaningful way to have greater impact as a leader.

Our course approach is to offer a truly unique experience. Our hope is that our courses will have a lasting impact on the leaders that we work with. These are not your typical course structures where many models will be discussed; instead, it's a balanced mix of self-reflection time, one-on-one discussions, small group work and large group discussions.
We strive to make the learning stick through creating an experiential environment and by making people of all styles feel comfortable participating at the level they want to.
