The Agile leader: how to build and lead high performance teams
Wondering what is the recipe to successful and effective leadership? Join us for this workshop where Jérôme Michaud will explain why a situational approach to leadership makes all the difference and share tips about how to drive authentic conversations and build highly effective teams. Great leaders see the promise in everyone and unleash talent by showing a path to success.They are also able to adapt their style to fit the requirements of the situation. Yet 54% of managers use one single style and only 11% demonstrate agility and flexibility with their leadership styles. This situation leads to high turnover, poor results and low motivation within many organizations. You can prevent this from happening by upskilling your leadership behaviors and enhancing your leadership’s agility.
