Leading Leaders: Achieving Organizational Goals Through Others

Move important initiatives and strategic goals forward by applying time-tested, proven strategies for leading and influencing others effectively.

Who Should Attend:

New or experienced leaders at mid-level and above who need to accomplish critical work and strategic initiatives through the leaders who report directly to them, as well as through a peer network of leaders, and through collaboration with senior leadership and top-level executives.

If you are a leader to whom other leaders report, you occupy a uniquely significant position. Leaders in your position serve as "the central gear" in the organization, tasked with the critical challenge of getting essential work done through others. This is generally accomplished through the other leaders you lead directly, through influencing the senior executives to whom you report, and by leveraging your peer leader network both inside and outside the organization.

You are also responsible for significant "big picture" efforts such as helping shape organizational direction and long-term strategies, developing strong networks to move important initiatives forward, positively influencing corporate culture, and much more. However, if you cannot get work done effectively and efficiently through others, virtually all of your accountabilities and key responsibilities may be jeopardized.
