New in the leadership role

The first 100 days as a leader as a guidepost for the future

Rise in the hierarchy of a company brings more prestige, more money and more responsibility. For the first time you are responsible for other people, not only need to reconcile your own goals with the company goals, but also those of the employees.
More responsibility brings additional tasks, more complex projects and makes more effective and efficient work necessary. In addition to the already sufficient juggling balls of your daily work, there are still some cones added. Keeping them all in the air is your job. It is important to organise, to correctly classify the employees, to recognise their strengths and weaknesses and to develop them all—including themselves.
Now you want to bring the already familiar theoretical concepts such as delegation, coaching, staff admission, recognition and criticism as well as motivation in your own personal way to practical use. If you take enough time, you will succeed.
In the three seminar days, you will find access to your personal situational style of leadership. You will work out ways in which you can make best use of management tools in your company and how you can communicate with employees, peers and supervisors.

First day:

You will recognise yourself and your potential, in a step-by-step plan you will plan and implement your next steps. The self-knowledge in the "clinical" seminar situation through many practical exercises, editing real cases and role-playing games make you fit for your everyday life.

Contents:

• Values as a leader and a leadership role
• Self-image—external image as a manager
• Corporate culture and trust
• Recruitment and employee integration
• Implementation of result orientation in job design
• Clear instructions and the right level of control
• Discussion of work results
• Measures catalogue and reflection map to implement your personal next steps

Second day:

You learn the correct way to deal with employees. From the reception of the staff to the end of the cooperation, from the short praise between the door and the standardised annual discussion, you will get to know the methods of the other participants in addition to the theory. Here you will find out which leadership styles are easy for you and which ones you can still grow.

Contents:

• communication and feedback rules
• conversation technique with role-playing games
• Lead staff meetings
• Motivational performance assessment
• MbO Performance Management
• Agree on quantitative and qualitative goals
• Measures catalogue and reflection map for implementation

Third day:

The topics of team building and networking with the rest of the organisation are discussed.
You will learn what counts with good teams and how to manage them. The surprises of the group dynamics, but also the possibilities of good discussions and meetings, the chance of the moderator‘s role are also visible here. It's about corporate culture, organisational development and, of course, conflict management.

Contents:
