Influencing for Leadership and Management
By Dickson Training Ltd
We often find ourselves working in fast-paced matrix environments, working in/with virtual teams or simply trying to get something done by someone in another part of the business. This common aspect of our working lives has a common challenge: how to influence other people to help us or do something for us, when they don't report to us. Pulling rank or strong nudging might work once, but we need to build a supportive and collaborative relationship over the long term. What Does This Course Offer? Fortunately, there are really effective tips for influencing, and our program offers an influencing model in detail. Through activity and discussion we explore how you can apply these principles and use it when you need help from other people. Even when we are not in a leadership position it can sometimes be extremely difficult to get people's help, especially when we have no authority over them. This is where an approach and an influencing model can help us identify what we and other people value in a given influencing situation. We can then explore that information so that everyone can view and pursue a common purpose. This course will enhance and promote the skill set necessary for any leader or manager, allowing our in-depth influencing knowledge to be applied into your working environment. From an employer's perspective this award can be a significant long-term return on investment by developing your leaders and managers. Our learning experiences are successful because the outcomes are quickly embedded and demonstrate an immediate visible impact on the day-to-day working environment. Our engaging learning inspires employees to want to personally add value to the companies they work for. We also offer our Paradigm Trait-Map™ online assessment and report as a frame of reference for your own influencing styles and that of others. This assessment should be completed before attending the program, and will be expanded upon during the program delivery. Course Content The Influencing for Leadership and Management course covers the following topics: Two key influencing models that you can apply back in your daily work Different types of influencing How to create the right environment for influencing Barriers you may face and how to overcome these barriers Accreditation Activity Our accredited tutors deliver training that encourages delegates to confidently and practically apply all they have learnt as soon as they get back into the business. To achieve this award, delegates need to prepare and deliver a 3 minute presentation* on the highlights of their learning and immediate application avenues when back in their working environment. *Participants will be given 30 minutes during the program to prepare for their 3 min presentation at the end of the program. Scheduled Course Dates Unfortunately this course is not currently scheduled as an open course as it is primarily run as an in-house programme. For more information, please contact us.

Leadership - turning values into action (In-House)
By The In House Training Company
A question of trust. Leadership implies followership. And that means trust. Because who's going to follow a leader they don't trust? This programme takes a values-driven approach to leadership. It gets current and aspiring leaders to hold up the mirror to themselves and to see their reflections as leaders of people. It asks them whether what they see justifies their view of themselves as leaders. It helps them understand just what it takes to be an effective leader. And it does so in a highly practical, constructive manner. It helps the course participants to truly understand the core skills of effective leadership. It focuses on the difference between leadership and management, defining what high performing teams do and how they do it. It helps people to see their teams from different perspectives, allowing them to adapt their styles to maximise team outputs. And it explores concepts such as emotional intelligence, authentic leadership and the RAIV approach (relationships-achievement-independence-vocation) to help explore underlying values and use them to drive effective leadership.

At Noble, we deliver the SLII programme as either an in person or virtual programme. Option 1 - a two-day session, in person at North Scare - 18th & 19th February, 9am to 4pm. Option 2 - 5 x two & a half hour virtual sessions via Zoom. We blend self-directed learning, online discussions, interactive exercises, reflection, and offline assignments with a comprehensive personal leadership assessment/360 feedback tool. Programme Overview Create individual success with a situational approach to leadership. With business moving at a blistering pace, there’s more pressure than ever for leaders to be effective at managing successful teams. But often, they don’t have the skills to be the agile, adaptive leaders they need to be, and they struggle to build meaningful connections and achieve results. It’s not for lack of effort or interest. Research has shown that most leaders are limited to a single leadership style—so they don’t know how to unleash the potential of their people as their needs shift. Leaders need to learn how to lead situationally. Blanchard’s SLII® empowers leaders to become adaptive—a requirement for our uncertain times. Backed by 40 years of research and an unmatched track record of results, The SLII Experience™ teaches your leaders how to lead situationally by giving their people the right support and direction at the right time. SLII enables leaders to build deeper relationships with their people, making every day more inspiring, motivating, and meaningful.

David Hutchens will introduce participants to storytelling through a lens of change management. They will discover the three stories they should be telling now in order to move the system and engage their team in a context of extreme uncertainty. Attendees of this session will: Explore how stories of continuity, novelty, and transition are needs that every organizational system has. Hear specific examples of how other leaders and organizations are telling these stories. Identify some of the 'narrative assets' (the value-holding stories) that they can start telling right away!

The Authority Guide to Behaviour in Business
By Ei4Change
How to inspire others and build successful relationships. This course is designed to support professionals in business to develop communication skills through understanding and applying knowledge of personality and behaviour in the workplace. It is based upon the book "The Authority Guide to Behaviour in Business: How to Inspire Others and Build Successful Relationships" by Robin Hills (ISBN: 1912300087).
Communication is the essence of Leadership. This programme is the premiere of our leadership courses focusing on creating a culture of positive interaction, clear and respectful exchanges, all the while keeping high-performance productivity, ownership, and innovation in the forefront. Before the start of the learning session, delegates complete the TruTalent™ Learning & Productivity (TTL & P), a 20-minute online survey of an individual’s productivity preferences and learning styles. The assessment identifies the individual’s work and learning preferences for 4 styles and 12 environmental and mindset preferences. These elements affect, positively or negatively, how each individual achieves and performs in work-based learning environments. They also affect the way in which individuals concentrate, make decisions, solve problems, process information, approach and complete tasks, retain new and complex information, develop new skills, and interact with others. DELEGATES WILL BE ABLE TO: Use the TruTalent™ Learning & Productivity assessment to increase productivity and maximise performance; Set meaningful professional goals and celebrate success for incremental progress toward achievement; Inspire innovation with teams to increase ownership and accountability; Empower employees and increase engagement with effective, positive feedback; Focus on positivity, setting an example for others that we are an organisation of “yes” and solutions; and Improve spoken and written communications, creating an authoritative image of expertise. Online Format—Leadership & Management Development is a 4-hour interactive virtual class. Register for this class and you will be sent ONLINE login instructions prior to the class date. After a two-day seminar, our attendees remained in their seats wanting more from Dr Atkins. His direct, yet challenging approach to presenting topics seemed to mesmerize the participants. Many very lively discussions were part of our workshop’s context. Personally, I am very interested in re-booking this type of experience every year for new leaders to undergo! Michael J. Whitlock, Director of Fay Corey Union & Conferences | SUNY Cortland
