The Foundation of Leadership: Relating to Others

Focuses on leadership fundamentals, such as critical thinking and emotional intelligence. The session explores matching various management styles to meet the challenges and needs of changing environments; the best ways to communicate with employees, senior leaders, and peers; and challenges such as leading multi-generational workforces and managing former peers. It also teaches students through hands-on exercises how to lead versus manage, conduct successful coaching conversations, and avoid “analysis paralysis” – a common frustration for executives.
