Developing Leadership Charisma
Getting Noticed When and Where It Counts
The most capable don't always succeed; the ones who project their ability do. You can be the brightest in your business specialty and produce measurable results, but if you aren't consistently effective with people, it is very difficult to project your influence. In this seminar you'll acquire new tools to develop your own style of strong and directive executive effectiveness and leadership. You'll learn how the best think, act, and relate to others on a whole new level - to both get pulled up from above and pushed up from below.

Acquiring and Leveraging New Capabilities
The New Organizational Imperative
Rapid environmental change emanating from a number of different fronts (technology, customers, competitors, and globalization) have pushed firms to become more ambidextrous in their approaches to innovating new products and services while sustaining their profitability. Tomorrow's firms will need organization designs and approaches that promote both new ways of thinking as well as strong execution. In this workshop, we explore how firms from a variety of industries have attempted to reinvent themselves to build leading market positions.

Leading Without Commanding
The seminar deals with two paradoxes: Paradox 1 - How to stay in control and create room to manoeuvre?; Paradox 2 - How to stay in control without figures? The advise is: Don’t manage by figures, manage by vision. Participants will learn how to evolve from quantitative to qualitative verifiable targets. Prior to the seminar participants receive a Self scan. With the Self scan they receive feedback on their leadership style. “Am I an Input or an Output manager.” In this interactive seminar we alternate constantly between theory and practice.
