Success and managerial effectiveness hinges on the use of influence at all levels of an organization. With this work-shop, you will leverage practical tools and techniques to apply influence strategies, gain commitment from others, foster collaboration, and acquire the specific competencies, behaviors, and attitudes necessary to achieve desired results without relying on the use of authority.
Efficient leadership of teams are served far better by a flat structure where a broad base of individuals and leaders share a common set of values and feel part of the overall success of an organization rather than a
dominant leader or hierarchal structure.
In this workshop, you will learn how to implement strategies that fit a modern working environment helping you focus on responding to change rapidly, increased innovation, productivity and being part of a shared purpose throughout an organization. To achieve this there will be a strong emphasis on communication and leadership styles best suited to a flat structure organization.
Target Group
- Leaders in technical working environments
- Team leaders with or without disciplinary authority
- experts and employees who are working in matrix-organizations and cross-functional roles.
