Workshops

Congrats. Your business card finally reads ‘Supervisor’ or ‘Manager’ and you now have people looking to you for direction and guidance. Crap. Now what?? Feeling a little overwhelmed and underprepared? Finding the challenges changing daily and having trouble keeping up? Afraid of letting your team down and revealing your (gasp) weaknesses in the process??? So begins the perilous and never-ending journey to becoming a leader.

Here’s the good news. Regardless of how long you’ve been on the path, Lead On is the workshop designed to provide real sign posts, guardrails and clear direction to your ultimate destination. This one-day session delivers the skills and tools you need to fire up your personal leadership capacity. You’ll learn what a leadership model is and how to apply it to a variety of common scenarios, how to use emotion and relationships in positive ways to up your team’s effectiveness, delegation, conflict resolution, how to make concrete choices in your leadership approach and even kick your communication skills into overdrive to make sure you’re being heard loud and clear without ever raising your voice.

This super-interactive workshop will give you a chance to air your fears and concerns in a safe environment, play out some challenging scenarios, gain insights both from peers and a relevantly experienced training lead, and give you the opportunity to start developing some real strategies for your burgeoning leadership track. You’ll learn techniques built on experience and the latest research in motivation and communication and discover why meaningfulness is a hugely important part of today’s working life.

Using metaphors, war stories, humor, play and discussion, Lead On will be an unforgettable day of discovery and growth – and a critical next step in becoming the kind of leader you’ve always admired and dreamed of one day becoming.

All Combustion workshops come complete with a strategic sustainment program to make sure learning stays alive long after we’re gone.
