The Practical Leadership Skills Series includes four interactive workshops.
Each workshop lasts 75 minutes and includes both presentation and interactive group exercises. Participants leave the workshop with a practical skill that they can take back to their workplace and use immediately.
Four topics covered in the series:
1. How to conduct effective one-on-one meetings
2. Practical coaching and mentoring for non profit leaders
3. Practical team building for nonprofit leaders
4. How to lead without authority
Do you meet regularly with your staff? Do you find these meetings frustrating and a waste of time? While regular one-on-one meetings with staff can be the most effective way to build employee engagement, team morale, and improve performance they often devolve into ineffective “update” meetings.
In this interactive workshop participants learn the five practices that drive effective one-on-ones. Participants take part in exercises to develop their skills. Finally, they learn how to avoid the four common pitfalls that derail one-on-ones.
Effective coaching and mentoring are critical to driving employee engagement and organizational performance. But as a nonprofit leader, coaching and mentoring can often seem to be a daunting and esoteric practice.
In this interactive workshop participants learn the four practices that drive effective coaching and mentoring in the workplace. Participants take part in exercises to develop their skills. Finally, they learn how to identify situations when coaching and mentoring are not appropriate.
In a world of remote work and quiet quitting, building effective teams is one of the greatest challenges that nonprofit leaders face. But, to be successful, it is a challenge that nonprofit leaders must overcome.
In this interactive workshop participants learn the twelve characteristics of the most successful teams, and how to build them in your workplace. Participants take part in exercises to develop their skills. Finally, they learn how to avoid the common pitfalls that undermine teams and team building.
Whether it is working on cross-functional teams, guiding volunteers or board members, or collaborating with colleagues from other organizations, as nonprofit leaders we often must lead in situations where we have no authority. This is particularly challenging for leaders used to highly structured organizations.
In this interactive workshop participants learn the eight practices that drive successful collaborative leadership. They also learn the four common pitfalls that derail nonprofit leaders when they try to lead without authority.
