The Three Conversations of Leadership: Management Leadership Training

The Three Conversations of Leadership - How Leaders Drive Results by Having The Conversations That Matter

IHHP - Institute for Health and Human Potential


“The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place”
George Bernard Shaw


We all have relationships at work that aren’t working. This is not surprising, given how the pressure of time and need for results can cause people to have impact they don’t intend. What is surprising, however, is the lack of skill and ability most people have to deal with the relationships that aren’t working.

Leaders want to make their relationships work, they want to give performance reviews that make a difference, they want to give informal feedback that improves clarity and performance, they want to be better leaders. Most, unfortunately, are just not sure where to begin.

The Three Conversations of Leadership provides leaders with the tools and strategies needed to build effective relationships at work. Not only to deal with the relationships at risk that keep them up at night but to grow the kind of robust relationships that drive great results.

In this program, participants learn the crucial Emotional Intelligence skills needed to more effectively:
* Give honest and candid feedback
* Hold people accountable
* Deliver bad news
* Engage people when rolling out change; and,
* Speak truth when there is tension and conflict

The Three Conversations of Leadership - Managing Emotions in the Conversation

The key to having effective conversations is to manage the emotions that are at work for both people in the conversation. The Three Conversations of Leadership sheds light on what emotions might be driving behavior for both people and helps leaders effectively manage their emotions in order to communicate more effectively.

Learning Outcomes

Participants will:
* Understand the three conversations of leadership the daily, the difficult and the courageous.
* Be able to build relationships based on trust and respect that comes with having effective Daily Conversations.
* Learn and practice techniques for having Difficult Conversations:
o Giving honest and candid feedback without leaving the other person feeling “beaten up”
o Holding people accountable in an engaging way
o Giving bad news or saying “no” in a way that ensures the person still feels valued n Begin to learn the Art of Courageous Conversations: techniques to speak your truth when there is tension and conflict that is impacting an important relationship.

The Three Conversations of Leadership gives leaders new insight into what is getting in the way of their most important work – and personal – relationships. It provides them with tools to more effectively have the conversations that matter and drive results. Leaders will also find peace of mind because they are finally dealing with issues they know they need to deal with.

Re: Business Women Peer Mentoring Spotlight Re: Business Women Peer Mentoring Spotlight - Hi Everyone, Gosh, I REALLY appreciate your concrete feedback. This was far more than I expected and I'm glad you said what you thought straight out. Each of you have shared something of value and I want to take some more time to think and really go over what each of you have said. However, I can see there are some things I need to change right away. What an interesting point about a NEW program perhaps making people think they are guinea pigs! This is NOT what I want to convey! It's funny how we can see some things so clearly in others while not always seeing it for ourselves! I must admit there are a few things I've been meaning to change (like my bio which is very outdated). Obviously, these things need to be higher on my priority list. You caught me like the plumber who puts his clients first and doesn't get around to fixing his own tap! As far as my target market, I do feel quite strongly about working with Women Leaders and doing Leadership Coaching with them. It's non-negotiable in my books. In my Executive Coaching training, the terms "Leaders" and "Executives" are interchangable. To me, an Executive is a Leader and so is the Business Woman or Entrepreneur who is CEO of her own business. I love working with decision makers! What I did learn is that I need to avoid opening up the Leadership term beyond what I described above. I'm also wondering if there is a misunderstanding with the general public as to what Leadership Coaching really is. Leadership Coaching is all about developing your leadership skills, both as a people manager and in more effectively running and growing the business. There is ALWAYS room for growth in some way. As well, sometimes, we just need a sounding board to clarify what our next BEST step is. In fact, if a woman thinks she has nothing to work on, then we aren't a good Client/Coach fit anyway. How can she grow if she doesn't see the value of expressing ALL of the great ability within her? How can her company grow if she doesn't see the value of strategic planning for the next best level? Thanks again to you all! I will go back to my website and really question whether I am conveying the right message. I got more than I bargained for in this Spotlight... you generously offered way more than I was asking. I think we could be on to something great for the Forum. Now it's time to let someone else have the spotlight. It would be great if everyone took a turn! In gratitude, Tami
