In
addition to the main Summit program, there will be a
Pre-Summit on July 17, which will include the following
interactive seminar.
Seminar
1:
The Leader’s
Compass: Knowing Yourself, Knowing What You Believe
In and Overcoming Ethical Dilemmas.
Session
I
The Energize2Lead
Profile™ Assessment
The Energize2Lead Profile™
identifies what types of activities energize a leader
as well as what activities can lead to frustration.
The survey results unleash the power of the three dimensions
of a leader’s energy: (1) Preferred Styles; (2)
Expectations; and (3) Instinctive Needs
The profile provides
leaders abundant and rich information about themselves
and their people. It provides data that allows tailoring
of specific program elements to address the organization’s
specific needs, and to plan, manage, and execute workplace
behavior changes. Finally the importance of the difference
between real and perceived cannot be ignored. Even if
it is not possible to change the organizational structure
or culture to accommodate the desires of others in the
organization, it is critical to recognize and address
the gaps.
At the conclusion of
the workshop you will truly have greater knowledge on
“knowing yourself” and use the results of
the survey and assessment to be more effective and productive
as a leader.
Session
II
Writing your
Personal Leadership Philosophy (Leader’s Compass):
Creating Credibility and Trust
Successful leaders
know their Personal Leadership Philosophy (PLP) and
communicate it by living it passionately everyday in
all they say and do. The have taken the time to determine
who they are, their values and priorities. They know
their course and have set their internal compass, which
gives them greater self-knowledge, greater self-confidence,
and improved effectiveness as a leader.
This is accomplished
by writing a Personal Leadership Philosophy, which states
the core values you live by, what you will expect of
your people, what they can expect of you, and how you
will evaluate performance. Writing your PLP is not an
easy exercise; during this session, you will write your
first draft, with the help and feedback from your colleagues
and the facilitator.
At the conclusion of
the process and upon writing you PLP, you will:
- Learn the eleven leadership principles and how leaders
utilize them to be successful
- Understand the #1 problem in leadership communication
and how the Personal Leadership Philosophy (PLP) solves
it
- Learn what a PLP is and why it acts like a compass
- Learn how the PLP makes a leaders more effective
- Understand the characteristics of the best and
worst leaders
- Understand how leaders influence their followers
by providing purpose, direction and motivation
Session III
Character Excellence: Dealing with and Overcoming Ethical
Dilemmas
This seminar will provide
leaders with an opportunity to discuss, evaluate, and
solidify their own beliefs and values while learning
with reference to others, particularly when two virtues
conflict. The challenge may not be to determine the
right course of action but to determine how one goes
about building a foundation upon which an ethical course
of action is the one taken routinely.
Participants will receive
a copy of Inspiring Leadership: Character and Ethics
Matter and an accompanying workbook. The workbook
will be used as material during this session to permit
attendees to review and discuss four business case studies
related to ethical dilemmas. There are no training manual
for honor, no overhead projections or PowerPoint presentations
that teach courage when faced with an ethical dilemma.
There is only shared experience and reflection regarding
examples of those who hit the mark and those who miss
by a wide margin. This session will delve deeply into
such experiences and engage participants in discussions
that aim to prepare leaders for the ethical dilemmas
they’ll face.
