LEADERSHIP IN ACTION
PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICES
In Leadership in Action 1, you will identify and clarify your commitment to your future and learn the leadership skills necessary for effectively achieving your vision and goals.
What you learn will proceed along several parallel tracks:
You will learn your leadership style, strengths, and limitations while practicing and developing a leadership presence. A centered presence gives you the ability to act and respond effectively and appropriately in the widest variety of situations. When events and situations become more stressful, your presence and ability to be relaxed and focused will enable you to act in a more decisive and grounded way.
Declaring and committing to a future is a learned skill. We will take you through the process of embodying your vision and future goals. You will learn practices to keep yourself in action and to collaborate with others to achieve your goals.
The ability to give and receive powerful grounded assessments is a leadership skill. You will learn to deliver and receive assessments to further your goals and ambitions and to further the goals and ambitions of your family, friends, peers, and the team members in your professional work.
To effectively coordinate with others it is necessary to listen to what is important to others and what they care about. One of the skills you will learn in this course will be to blend with the needs and concerns of others and at the same time not lose what is important to you.
There are times along the path of life when you are asked to take a stand for what you care about. Taking a stand is a skill. It comes into play when your values and those you care about are challenged. This can be internal or external. Our ability to take a stand is essential for us to achieve our goals.
In this course you will begin to embody the leadership virtues of authenticity, integrity, accountability, confidence, and a centered presence.
Leadership in Action Level 1 will affect broad areas of your life, both professionally and personally. For sustainable change in your life, either for building new skills and capacities or moving through a personal impasse, this course is for you. Our work goes beyond insight and understanding. You will embody new skills and behaviors.
