Leading People Session Descriptions:

  • Balancing Leadership & Management
    Are leaders and managers different people? Can you have both sets of skills? Do you know when and how to use them?  This session focuses on answering these questions and discussing how you can understand leadership and management so you can lead purposefully.
  • Managing Performance and Motivation
    Did you know that motivating people is like building a jigsaw puzzle?  If one piece is missing the whole does not work.  In this session, you will learn an integrative model of performance management that incorporates best practices in motivating high performance and will apply this knowledge to your work environment.
