OCPOA Quarterly Training: Lead Yourself First

Event Details

There are thousands of leadership courses, books, and articles to help us become better leaders. Some of the content is better than others, but overwhelmingly, the material focuses on how to lead others. While there is no argument that leaders must lead others, we cannot successfully lead others unless we lead ourselves first. Through guided discussion, video review, and personal assessment, we will look at key elements of self-leadership and how we can enhance our current skills.

Learning Objectives:

1. Authority vs. Leadership

2. Discovering Your Purpose: Personal Mission Statements

3. Leadership Self-Awareness: How Am I Leading? How Do I know?

4. Transactional vs. Transformational Leadership

5. Communication Styles: How Do I Like to Receive Information?

6. What Pushes My Buttons?

7. You Owe You: Investing in Yourself

8. What's Your Legacy? What Have You Done for the Organization?
