Leadership Development Series
‘Person-Centered’ Leadership Training Course
This 5 session program series is designed to enhance the skills of leadership staff. Through a user-friendly training approach, staff participates in the problem-solving process of real-life leadership challenges. There is a high emphasis of providing a training context in which the principles that are learned are applied directly to the workplace. This transfer of training is accomplished through the use of typical issues encountered by leadership staff in their work settings. An added value to this course is that it may be conducted within the facility itself so as to optimize resource utilization (so the staff don’t have to travel). The five part series includes the following topics:
Administration of the ‘DiSC Personal Profile System
