New Directions in Leadership



No dates are currently scheduled

In the dynamic, ever-changing fields of human services and health care, new directions in leadership are not only desirable, they are essential. Detecting your potential and developing your leadership skills enhances your growth both as a person and as a manager.

True leaders are concerned with inner power and they find ways to grow in their sense of self and service to others. This thought-provoking workshop assists you to understand the stages in the development of your personal power and how they affect your management and leadership styles.

The binding of shared visions and values gives purpose and direction to the mission of an organization. You will discuss concepts of intention, challenge, experimentation, and celebration and their roles in the practice of leadership. Understanding the conditions of empowerment gives you opportunities to strengthen others and create synergy in interactions.

Your passion can inspire others to share your vision. Ignite the fires! Your competency and wisdom can give strength and stability to a changing situation. Your integrity can create a climate of trust where ideas are valued and people can shine.

All those who work in the field of human services or health care are invited to join us for a day of growth focusing on inner power and transformational leadership.
