Description

Personal Leadership: Clarifying What You Stand For and Embodying It

Identify your deeper drivers so you can inspire others without borrowing someone else's style

  • 2 days — 14 h
  • In-person or virtual
  • Foundation
  • Up to 6 participants

Leadership cannot be declared and it cannot be copied. It emerges from the consistency others perceive between what a person says, what that person does and who that person is.

Two days to clarify your values and your own style, work on the levers that mobilise a team and remove the obstacles that blur your message.

Learning objectives

  • Identify your values, your drivers and your leadership style
  • Articulate a vision that is clear and mobilising
  • Develop your presence and relational impact
  • Earn commitment rather than impose compliance
  • Build a realistic personal development plan

What makes this programme different

Full self-assessment followed by an individual debrief
Alternation between reflective work and role-play situations
Development plan reviewed after thirty days

Programme

1Knowing Yourself as a Leader

You cannot inspire others with a borrowed style

  • Values, drivers, sources of energy and of demotivation
  • Self-assessment of your dominant leadership style
  • Strengths to rely on and areas requiring vigilance
  • The balance between authenticity and adapting to context

2Carrying a Vision

Making people want to follow

  • Moving from objectives to direction: what creates meaning
  • Articulating a vision that is short, concrete and embodied
  • Connecting the vision to each person's daily work
  • Holding the course over time and in the face of contradictions

3Developing Your Presence

What is perceived before any words are spoken

  • Congruence between message, behaviour and decisions
  • Posture, voice, eye contact and use of space
  • Active listening and the quality of attention given
  • Handling situations where you are publicly challenged

4Mobilising a Team

From individual presence to collective momentum

  • Creating the conditions for commitment rather than demanding it
  • Deciding and taking ownership, including unpopular decisions
  • Growing others: delegation, visibility and recognition
  • Three-month personal development plan

Who is it for

Managers, owners of small businesses, project managers and specialists expected to carry a vision or lead a transformation.
