Developing Your Leadership Skills
Leadership is an attitude and not a title. Leadership is the ability to be the example of the skills and passion you bring to your business that others can model from; thus creating an interdependent culture that brings significant growth and productivity. We will discuss the process to develop your leadership skills into a system that invigorates growth. Outcomes lead to higher retention, productivity, efficiency and profitability.

Building a Highly Engaged Team
To build a highly engaged team, you must first have engaged employees. Sounds simple but in today’s environment of a multi-generational, multi-cultural workforce, you need to understand what compels your employees and what gives them a sense of purpose. Companies with disengaged employees experience 50% employee turnover; 20% less productivity; subpar customer service; and are 30% less profitable than companies with engaged employees. In this class, we will explore what it means to be engaged and how leaders encourage, nurture, and maintain employee engagement through creating purpose.
