| COURSE OFFERINGS Enhancing Leadership Through Personal Power |
In this session, Dr. Tom Pomeranz provides the attendees with a best practice approach to Team Building. The session details specific suggestions regarding how attendees can enhance their personal power and increase their effectiveness as team players. Tom emphasizes that people tend to resist management but are inspired by leadership. Thus, the ability of team members to exercise personal power and minimize the use of positional authority will create unity and solidify collegial relationships. The sessions’ goals include: working as a member of a team, knowing the qualities of a good leader, understanding how change can help one achieve goals, recognizing conflict and how to resolve it. Tom uses the concept of “critical moments” as the foundation for enhancing the effectiveness of team members. The team members’ response to critical moments is the determinant of the overall success of the team. Among the critical moments commonly faced by team members analyzed in this session are: response to emergency situations, follow-up to staff inquiries, accuracy in submitting forms and documents, being prompt in arriving at scheduled meetings and conducting staff performance evaluations. The session also includes several simulated group activities, which help reinforce and clarify the important concepts presented. The goal of the session is to promote a sense of empowerment and self-determination in all attendees, providing staff with a vision and motivation to enhance job satisfaction. |
