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.

Leading Minds, Fueling Innovation: Leadership in an Increasingly Neurodiverse World Neurodiversity is a biological fact-the normal diversity of the human brain-and data suggests up to 1 in 4 individuals are Neurodivergent beyond that of a societal 'norm,' commonly labelled as ADHD/ADD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Anxiety Disorders, among others. Some of the greatest innovators of our time were and are Neurodiverse; however, many of today's organizational cultures and leadership methods are not supportive of the employment, retention, and development of Neurodiverse talent. This means that many brilliant, innovative minds are inadvertently being kept from the table of innovation, slowing the pace of progress. In an increasingly Neurodiverse world, how can top leaders and organizations ensure that ALL minds have a seat at the table of innovation? Join this session to learn about the world of Neurodiversity and how you can lead mind-first toward supporting innovation and well-being in your people, products, and customers! The history of Neurodiversity and its influence in the world. Reasons organizations should act now to ensure a competitive edge. What it means to lead mind-first and how it empowers a healthier workforce, a more inclusive culture, and more innovative products.
