Leadership is not about personality; it is about behavior—an observable set of skills and abilities.  This session will include an overview of The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership® and a copy of The Leadership Challenge® book and pocket card.  When co-authors, Kouzes & Posner, set out to discover what effective leaders do, they asked people to think of a peak leadership experience.  Despite differences in culture, gender and age these responses revealed similar patterns of behavior.  The authors discovered The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership®: Model the Way, Inspire a Shared Vision, Challenge the Process, Enable Others to Act and Encourage the Heart.

In this workshop, you will learn how to:

  • Identify your leadership strengths/weaknesses
  • Set the example for others
  • Identify your vision of the future and inspire others to share
  • Search for opportunities to improve your organization
  • Experiment with innovative ideas and learn from mistakes
  • Build collaboration, teamwork, and trust
  • Strengthen the abilities of others to excel
  • Recognize the accomplishments of others
  • Apply the lessons learned to a current organizational challenge

Cost: $175 for OzSBI Members / $220 for non-members
