I have two bits of news:
1. New White Paper about Leadership and Culture.
2. New Web Training Programs
1. In conjunction with the launch of our new web training series we are offering a white paper called How Leaders Can Optimize Organizational Culture, to all attendees (if you cannot attend a webinar, you can download the white paper here). This white paper addresses methods leaders should use to help their culture become a driving force for performance excellence and results – especially during times of significant change. Topics addressed include:
-
How organization cultures are formed and changed.
-
The ways that an organization’s culture can become a driving force for positive performance changes.
-
Methods and practices that enable leaders to adjust and improve their culture.
-
Characteristics of a culture of continuous learning.
-
Which leadership practices can improve the organization’s culture and those that may degrade it.
-
The most important leadership practices for creating and maintaining a healthy and productive organization culture.
I hope you enjoy the white paper. Use it as a discussion starter at your next staff meeting and talk about your culture and the management team's role in shaping it.
2. We are kicking off a new web training series starting this Thursday. We have two topics that are each being delivered twice - you can see the titles and dates below. These 60 minute webinars offer meaty training - they are not infomercials for books or other longer training programs. They stand alone as focused classes that offer immediately implementable suggestions. These training programs are a very affordable $30 per person and right now, because we are using a U.S. toll-free phone number, they are only open to people in the U.S. (To my international readers: we might try to expand these to be available beyond the US in the coming months).
I know some of you might be wondering why these webinars are not free, because there are a lot of free webinars out there. Here is our stance on this. Most free webinars are meant to be appetizers - to introduce a book or a larger program. Our webinars are designed to be alternative forms of training (a meal), and there is no sales pitch. Managers are busy, and I believe that that we need to help them build their craft by offering short and frequent bits of real learning. This is a great value for a meaty hour of training. I hope that you and your fellow managers can join me this Thursday. It will be a great session (I am facilitating all of the April sessions).
