MC1 Leading Your Team

People are the lifeblood of a successful business, and without the right people in your team, you'll find it challenging to meet the demands of the business.

But getting the right people on board is only part of the picture. You've then got to manage and lead them in a way that keeps them motivated, engaged and productive. This is why leading a team can be both the most rewarding and frustrating aspect of being in a senior position.

In this workshop facilitated by Fiona Craig, Executive Coach and Trainer you will learn:

• what type of leader you are and need to be
• the key leadership behaviours your team need to see
• how to build resilience in yourself and your team
• why you need to empower not manage your team
• the 3 key ingredients to empowering your team
• how to create a culture of action, responsibility and accountability

This session is ideal for new leaders, aspiring leaders and those looking to gain some new insights into getting the most out of their team. Join this session and be inspired to be the leader you know you want and need to be.
