Topics of Focus:
Inspirational Leadership
As Humans, we all have some personality traits that are less than desirable. Although we may try to hide them, are not aware of them at all or find a way to justify them, they can weigh heavily on an organization’s culture and on personnel’s ability to produce results. At The Handel Group, we help leaders dismantle organizational politics and align the culture by becoming aware of – and going to work on – their own character traits that may be suppressing inspiration, communication and accountability in the organization. Leaders learn to inspire and lead by telling the truth and have the truth empower and inspire their people into action, serving as an example to the rest of their organization. Each participant will recognize his or her role in the success of the organization and will be clear on what it will take to be an inspirational leader; inspiring their people and increase their organizations’ effectiveness and results.
The Language of Accountability
Accountability is the ability to keep and maintain agreements, goals or deliverable, to manage one’s self and others effectively, and is the result of a “no-excuses” mindset. To the accountable person, it is a privilege to be reliable and produce results that are extraordinary or impeccable. We teach the language of accountability, which minimizes drama, excuses, explanations and justifications. Leaders are trained to hold their direct reports to account without bullying or using other negative deterrents. Communication is no longer political or personal, allowing a freedom of creation and cooperation, which enables results to soar.
Powerful and Effective Communication
The ability to communicate directly and effectively is one of our most powerful tools, but many of us tend to let our fears and insecurities guide our speaking, or lack there-of. We may avoid important conversations because we predict how the communication will go even before it has occurred. In this area, we will explore the Handel Group principles that teach exceptional communication. We give participants the tools for cultivating strong communication skills in a clear, direct, and effective manner and assist them in having the “difficult” conversations they have been avoiding. Through action, buttressed by coaching, the participants will experience first-hand the value of leaving nothing unsaid, responsibly and consistently. Without this level of communication, exceptional leadership is impossible.
Understanding Your Personality
We investigate individuals’ personality traits and styles of behavior. Participants will explore the source of their own personality, as well as work on developing their effective traits and abandoning the negative ones. These changes are not merely suggestions – rather the participants will instinctively sense the strong incentive for change, and, with guidance from their coach, will implement the changes, realizing the benefits firsthand.
Personal Integrity®
We define Personal Integrity® as living by your own values – your personal highest standards for yourself. It is aligning your heart, your head and your actions. Having Personal Integrity® requires the ability to keep the promises to have made to your self and to others in matters large and small. It is doing what you said you would do when you said you would do it. We train clients to identify and define their Personal Integrity® and to learn to honor their own ideals and values.
