Course Focus

As managers take on new roles and responsibilities, the risks and consequences of failure become much greater. In this course, participants gain skills in identifying and overcoming the obstacles and pitfalls they may face at different stages of their careers. Participants create a personal Leadership Development Plan to guide them through leadership transitions and make them more effective managers and members of their organizations. (Participants must bring a completed personal leadership development plan to the course—either one they created in LSM509, Unlocking Your Leadership Potential, or one they’ve created in their workplace.) They also develop strategies for helping their team of direct reports grow and change when faced with new assignments. The course includes the opportunity to register for individual or group coaching sessions as a follow-up activity to further reinforce and tailor the program.

Who Should Take This Course?

This course is ideal for managers and executives at all levels who have been promoted to positions of increased authority or who are looking to help their team of direct reports grow and change when faced with new assignments.
