Motivating learning for modern managers

We kick off with a collaborative focus on the key role of strengths-based approaches; both to our own self-development and the ways we help to identify, and unlock potential in others.

An experimental exploration of emotionally intelligent leadership, grounding our focus in Daniel Goleman's six leadership archetypes — and discovering how we can flex them in relation to our strengths, and the specific situations we find ourselves in today.

Purposefully progressing our practical focus into one of Goleman's six styles — the coaching leader. In the modern world of management, knowing when (and how) to coach and when to mentor will be critical for our relationships.

When we properly and purposefully delegate in our teams we not only lighten the load for ourselves, but we create powerful learning experiences for others. But there are many blockers to it happening, that we'll identify and remove together.

Successfully giving and receiving feedback, and being able to have difficult conversations in all directions will be critical in creating the conditions for teams to thrive. We share transformative models, loved by those that learn them.

The importance of purposeful and effective 1-1s between managers and team members has become all the more evident in increasingly distributed times. Defining the different kinds of 1-1, we experiment with tools for goal visibility, clarity and accountability.
