Leadership & Management Training in Toronto

Improve your management and leadership skills

Shrinking organizational budgets impact your learning and development. Yet despite this, there’s no shortage of demand for you to successfully handle an increasing workload of both projects and people.

This stimulating 1-day leadership workshop is for managers who are keen to develop their professional skills by identifying and exploring the use of better questions that lead to better conversations within a team and across teams.

You will develop your ability to help people identify and articulate their own solutions within both one-on-one conversations and in a team context and apply the approach in everyday work and practices such as project planning, project management, etc.

Learn how to help a team:

• Re-author what future solutions should look like and clarify the details of what’s actually wanted
• Move beyond discussing the team/project problem to clarify it, but not enter into it
• Become unstuck from the problem and able to reframe their narrative
• Recognize what’s already working and the resources present to move forward
• Identify the degree to which people are ready to change and overcome everyday obstacles
• Gain confidence in making decisions about how to move forward

Who are You?

You have some or lots of team management and leadership opportunities within a medium or large organization (business, institutional, not-for-profit, government, etc.). You have a minimum of 5 years business experience, ideally more. You have an established skillset, e.g. project or marketing management, etc. and you’re keen to broaden your capabilities. You want to better manage people and teams, not just projects. You want to be more effective in getting people/teams to move forward and to be seen leading change. You value the coaching relationship: you want to be coached and you want to coach your team. You recognize that you must be the author of your own leadership success and you’re keen to engage in the kind of DIY career development opportunity that could help get you to the next level — whether it’s within or outside of your organization. You are open-minded to dynamic new training and educational approaches that are counterintuitive to the norm, as long as they lead to better outcomes for you.
