SESSION DESCRIPTION
PART 1: Followership--It is true that organizations are interested in developing better leaders, but in their efforts to do so they sometimes overlook the people leaders will lead--their followers. This recent addition to LeadingWave's training products is based upon recent research and provides insight into what makes effective followers and how truly effective leaders can identify five different "styles" of followers. If you want to be an effective leader then this is a must program. It will provide insight into how to assess the "style" of your followers and then provide strategies for increasing their effectiveness. The training program uses case studies to help identify the different follower styles and provides specific, practical "how to" strategies for increasing follower effectiveness.

PART 2: Leadership This highly interactive program teaches the principle of "situational" leadership by introducing participants to five different styles of leadership (instructive, participative, laissez-faire, persuasive, and autocratic). Through the use of several case studies, participants will learn which style of leadership is appropriate for any given situation. Participants also learn how to "empower" employees through the style of leadership they use. The module introduces participants to the Leadership Grid and provides practical strategies for developing situational leadership skills.
