Leaders believe their team's performance is tied to their personal and professional success, but few are intentionally bringing out the best in their employees on a daily basis. In-Person Maximizing Performance Bring out the best in your employees Leaders believe their team's performance is tied to their personal and professional success, but few are intentionally bringing out the best in their employees on a daily basis. About Many leaders believe their team's performance is tied to their personal and professional success, but few are intentionally bringing out the best in their employees on a daily basis. Too often, employees are treated like light bulbs by busy leaders. When they aren't working well, they get replaced. In today's employee-driven marketplace, a failure to bring out the best in your team is a costly mistake. Wouldn't it be great to have proven tools that busy leaders can successfully apply to break bad habits and maximize employee performance? During this interactive workshop, you will engage with other participants using Gilbert's Behavioral Engineering Model and something called PIC/NIC Consequence Analysis. You will also learn why performance-based accountability grounded in behavioral psychology is key to Life-Changing Leadership Habits. Who should attend? Leaders and managers who are curious about how they can deliver better, faster, or more efficiently to set their company apart from the competition. Leaders and managers who are skeptical of their ability to motivate their team and enhance engagement among team members. Why you want to learn it? Every business is vulnerable to threats. But too few businesses and leaders stop to consider the possibility of becoming irrelevant. Harnessing the potential of company growth takes well-equipped leaders. "If you believe that training is expensive, it is because you do not know what ignorance costs." Leboeuf Well-equipped leadership makes a difference. Here is how: Team Performance: Several research studies have investigated the connection between the leader and business performance. Studies have demonstrated that effective leadership improves follower performance and promotes higher business results, follower job satisfaction, and follower organizational commitment. Innovation and Creativity: Evidence suggests that leadership is essential for driving innovation in a company. A study involving over 400 executives from 48 companies connected strategy and innovation performance directly with good leadership habits. Trust and Change: Studies have demonstrated that the level of trust in leadership directly correlates to employee retention, organizational commitment, and support for organizational change. Furthermore, when executives build trust, evidence suggests that organizational change readiness increases. Internal Communication & Relationships: Words shape worlds. Studies have revealed that influential leaders enhance two-way communication, creativity, collaboration, job attitudes, and organizational commitment. Leadership Transitions: Leadership transitions, whether successful or not, are costly. Evidence suggests that, on average, 35% of internally promoted executives fail, and direct reports spend 10-20% of their time helping a new leader transition. Successful leadership transitions increase company revenue, have 13% lower attrition rates, and are 90% more likely to achieve long-term performance goals. Leadership development is a leadership transition acceleration tool. Want to personalize or bring Maximizing Performance training to your business?
