Description:
The pure essence of Leadership is influence and everyone has the power to increase theirs. One of the challenges during times like these is understanding the fundamental principles of ethical influence. A huge part of becoming a leader and assuming a leadership position is figuring out where you are with those you are commissioned to lead and shifting our focus to recognizing their potential. Stepping into a new leadership role can offer many new demands. At times new positions come with limited exposure to proven principles to maximize the leader dealing with these new set of demands.

Participants will be exposed to the following principles and discussions:
- Why Does the World Need Leaders?
- The Difference in Supervisory Roles and Leadership Roles
- Legal Authority/Departmental Authority Versus Moral Authority
- Proper Work/Life Balance
- The Importance of an Evaluations System
- Media Relations
- Definitive Steps to Increase your Leadership Influence

What Separates Leaders from Great Leaders: Good leaders are good talkers, Great leaders are good listeners .
