Revealing the Invisible: Coaching the People You Lead – Johnson City

A powerful key to coaching others well is found in something we do every day, the simplicity of a conversation. Coaching happens between people and involves the use of words. These highly interactive sessions will help any leader or coach grow in their ability to help others move to a better place. Coaching never leaves a person in the same place. Come and learn with others how to be more intentional about the work environment you create for others as a leader and how you can be more effective in helping others to be their best when their best is needed.

Program will consist of four 3-hour onsite sessions, on January 28 & 29, and February 12 from 1:30 to 4:30 PM, and February 11 from 11:30 AM to 3:00 PM. The $440 fee per participant will cover tuition for all four sessions, along with water, refreshments, book, and all materials.

Walk Before You Lead: A Journey in Self-Awareness and Preparation to Lead Others – Amsterdam

In leadership, everything you do or don’t do matters. Leaders are always teaching what matters and why. As individuals, we typically do not insist on perfection from those who lead or influence us, yet, what I have learned from my global leadership classes and journeys is that we do desire, and expect from leaders, predictability and consistency. Leaders who are striving to build purposeful, intentional, and caring habits, so day in and day out they show up as the best version of themselves. 

 Do you aspire to influence those around you? Did you just step into your first positional leadership role? Are you connecting to others in a way that makes you important to them? In other words, do you matter to others and help them to be better because you are in their lives?

Program will consist of four sessions, on February 27 & 28, and March 6 & 7 from 10:00 to 15:00. The 900 Euro fee per participant will cover tuition for all four sessions, class materials, and lunch each day.
