SUMMARY:The Power of Adaptability and Feedback
DESCRIPTION:Giving and receiving effective feedback is a cornerstone of leveraging self-awareness\, self-management\, individual/team performance\, and leadership potential. The typical workplace environment values communication greatly\, but the most significant barrier to effective communication is “assuming it has occurred.”  Do you tell more than you ask?  Judge everything you experience or learn from it? \nParticipants complete the DiSC Behavioral Assessment before the session (included in the fee). \nFocus: This workshop clarifies the value of developing “intentional feedback habits” in your leadership journey and illustrates how a process-based approach can eliminate gaps and maximize relationships with others. \nThis workshop examines the power of asking effective questions versus telling through behavioral style adaptability and self-awareness. The content in this workshop creates value that goes well beyond the workplace. \nWho Should Attend: This course is suitable for staff at all levels\, new learners\, and those who may want to revisit previous learning. \nPre-work or Assessment: Complete the DiSC Assessment \nNOTE: Registration closes 3 weeks in advance of class to allow participants to complete the assessment \nInvestment for this class: $155 \nRegister Now
