They are up to something beyond just showing up to work everyday, and know that building a vibrant, thriving and aligned workplace will support them in making their vision a reality.
Leadership and Team Development
Sustainable change is most effectively realized when leadership development takes place at the individual and collective level concurrently. At Anjali Leadership we work with your leadership teams to help individuals learn how their own leadership strengths and challenges contribute to their effectiveness, both as an individual contributor and a team member, and how this impacts the culture of the organization.
Ongoing development work focuses on:
- establishing a common understanding of and vocabulary for leadership
- stimulating leadership behavioural change by addressing and supporting individual needs for leadership development
- engaging in conversations, exercises, simulations and various reflections that deepen insight into, and encourage ownership of leadership strengths and challenges
- increasing self-awareness about leadership styles, about specific competency strengths and weaknesses, and about the inner 'operating system' that is running behaviour patterns
- establishing greater awareness of how behaviour as individuals supports or hinders progress towards organizational objectives
- clarifying roles and increasing cohesiveness within the team
- creating a supportive culture within the team and the organization
- imparting the skills of authentic courageous conversation so that “real” conversations can take place rather than resorting to toxic behaviours
- creating quality action plans for improvement
- building support for follow-through
- establishing a learning process that is engaging, powerful and relevant to the team and the organizational objectives
At Anjali Leadership, we empower our clients to:
