Talent Coaching: 2022 Learning Series

Presentation Overview

This session will teach the merits of coaching and specific coaching models germane to today's most common workplace challenges. During the session we will teach a mapping methodology called QALMS, which we are published in Forbes magazine.

• Questions - building self-awareness and clarity.
• Activities - facilitating positive change.
• Learning Projects - creating ownership and accountability.
• Motivators - how to tie conversations to what motivates people.

Presentation Overview

With global issues such as Covid, and national concerns such as social unrest and government instability, with elections and technology disruptors such as machine learning impacting our businesses, we face significant challenges and opportunities to move our organizations, industries, and communities forward. Leadership must change in response to these changes. Each of us is invited into a new world requiring new skills and new ways of being. In leadership roles, we must respond to this invitation quickly. Our near-term success, as well as long-term success, is counting on it.

We are seeing significant cases of previously successful leaders and organizations faltering. Organizations are at risk of not meeting the essential missions they intend to serve. Faltering organizations can mean an interruption in the supply chain for crucial products, loss of livelihood, disruptions in children’s education, disruptions in medical treatment, etc. Leaders and leadership are pivotal in helping us navigate our challenging times. The best leaders will help us define a future that can improve our current reality and help us navigate the challenges to accomplish that future.

Learning Objectives

During this session, you will learn about Innovative Leadership, the type of leadership required to thrive during a disruption. Participants will leave the session with a clear understanding of the concepts of Innovative Leadership mindsets and behaviors, and recommendations to develop these mindsets and actions.

Sometimes the conversation seems to “go just fine” but we don’t see any real change that comes out of it.

Presentation Overview

By the time your high potential talent is approaching senior level leadership positions, they have been through a considerable amount of formal schooling and supplemental training. When you invest in your future executives and send them to a development program, do they return saying it was “life changing”? Are they are moved to tears because their experience was so powerful? If you answered no, you are not alone.

It is more common to hear little if anything about what someone learned and how they will use it to benefit your business. When this happens, it puts your future development dollars at risk and can hurt the performance of your organization in the long run. 

Join me as I share the secrets to creating and delivering an experience for high potential leaders that is so powerful it creates lasting behavior change and achieves benefits that far eclipses your investment!
