Motivate Like a CEO: Secrets to Communicating Vision and Driving Strategy
Forward
In every organization, communicating the "big ideas" is essential to driving
business results. Leaders, by definition, cannot do the work of the enterprise.
They can only communicate what needs to be done, inspire trust, and motivate
others to execute the plans. In this workshop, we will look at the role that
leaders play in connecting people with purpose and helping them discover their
own passion.
In this session, you will:
-
understand your influence on the larger purpose of the organization
-
connect vision and values to the mission of an organization
-
learn to use storytelling as a way to discover your mission and purpose, and to
win hearts and minds

Maximizing Your Influence: A Program Designed for Women Leaders
Everyone can feel frustrated by their inability to be heard by others. Yet women
cite this inability as an acute problem, which is a consistent and systemic
feature of organizational life. Not being heard on equal footing with your male

others. In this in-depth workshop, you will identify your preferred influence
styles and strategies, while maintaining your authenticity and integrity.
In this session, you will learn how to:
-
determine your preferred influence style, strengths, and development
opportunities
