For a long time the world has revolved around our weaknesses, our mistakes and how to fix them. Workplaces are almost exclusively focused on employee’s shortcomings, so organisational development, training and education are trying to turn us all into what we are not, distracting attention from what we are really good at. The program addresses this tendency to turn the other way around.
The aim of the program is to support managers being aware of their unique strengths, build on them and use them deliberately in their everyday managerial and leadership work.
Managers will be more authentic and credible in their managerial activities and they can increase their impact within their team and organisation by constructing teams with complementary strengths of individuals.
Managers will gain more clarity about their talents, which they formulate into specific strengths
Participants learn to apply positive psychology and strengths-based work, and their practical impact on individual and business performance, and motivation
Managers will build on their own and their team members' strengths in daily work to be a more effective leader or manager
Managers learn to restructure their work to spend more time in tasks that empower them less of those that weaken them
Practice and reflection on the use of strengths and results make new way of working sustainable
Managers learn to deliberately use their strengths in people management and define their unique leadership style
