Course Description
Many managers mistakenly assume that leadership style is a function of personality rather than strategic choice.
Instead of choosing the one style that suits their temperament, they should ask which style best addresses demands of a particular situation!
Successful Strategic Leaders:
- Understand their behaviors
- Understand how their behaviors impact others
- Understand their reactions to others
- Know how to leverage their strengths
- Know how to adapt their behaviors to the needs of a situation
As managers, you have a single overarching function – to accomplish company goals by “enabling others”
Managers who will be promoted are the ones who not only manage efficiently but also lead their teams effectively.
In this interactive webinar, learn how to:
- Work in a horizontal mode of operation
- Apply a consistent theory in leading your team
- Teach critical leadership skills to members of your team, so each and every one of them can lead the team in your absence.
We’ll discuss critical challenges, examples as given below, leaders’ experience in their roles, and specific approaches they can take to deal with these challenges :
- Interdepartmental “cooperation”
- Communicating effectively: How do personal differences impact communication?
- The rumor mill
- Dealing with people who expect to be spoon-fed or have Fridays “off”
- Creating an atmosphere for open communication and feedback
- Managing Performance Issues Scientifically
- Delegating Challenges
- Coaching: Challenges and Approaches
- Managing time more effectively

Organizational climate, in turn, is influenced by leadership style – by the way that managers motivate direct reports, gather and use information, make decisions, manage change initiatives, and handle crises.
In this interactive and detailed webinar:
- Know when to manage and when to lead your team
- Clearly visualize your goals and communicate them to your team
- Identify your market’s needs to better target your team’s efforts
- Help your team find creative solutions to workplace challenges
- Develop a high-performance team
- Use effective communication to motivate and coach
- Would you like to learn more about when to lead and when to manage your team?
Key questions for you:
- Would understanding techniques you can use to more clearly communicate your goals and get your team to deliver more effectively interest you?
- How about receiving some tools, tips, and techniques to help your team find creative techniques to solve problems?
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then come laugh, listen and learn as Chris DeVany leads us all through those important topics, key questions, and answers we all need to be able to address effectively to improve our team members and team’s performance!
