The Quiet Approach to Managing and Leading Others
As an introverted manager or leader, you bring a wealth of strengths to your work and your library that others simply cannot. Introversion brings a needed balance to a workplace and with its unique approach can yield remarkable results.
That said, the introverted manager faces a unique set of opportunities and challenges in achieving their goals and feelings of being valued and successful.
You should attend this full day program if you want to better lead and manage others by putting your unique skills to work. In this program you will refine and expand your workplace skills by:
- Identifying your strengths in managing and leading others and how to further grow those skills
- Using Free Trait Theory to be who you need to be in any managing situation
- Growing your confidence and authority when speaking to a group
- Effectively managing your boss to stay on track and announce your successes
- Having a plan of action to shine as your introverted self with the people and departments that you manage and lead
