Set your Managers up for Success!

This workshop can be taken as a stand-alone workshop or as part of the Foundational Leadership Certificate Series.  Just exactly where does that buck stop?  Good managers know how to delegate, but it can be a challenge to manage employees who are more interested in passing the buck than being responsible for it. The resulting lack of ownership and responsibility can bog down processes and shut down projects.  Learn how to marry expectations to results in “Accountability: Stop the Blame Game.” This workshop will help you create a game plan for building a culture of accountability with your team—starting at the top—and teach you how to design and use agreements with your team.  Learning Objectives Define three critical elements: responsibility, empowerment and accountability, and how they work together to create results Learn how to design and use clear agreements that provide clarity — knowing exactly who is responsible for what and when to get the job done  Discuss and gain skills for holding yourself — and others — accountable for results, no matter how things turn out  Become aware of where you are in the accountability game...what you do well, and what may need some attention Create a game plan for building a culture of accountability with your team Who Should Attend Supervisors, Managers Team Leads Individual Contributors When Thursday, August 10, 2023 9:00 AM - 2:00 PM Where The Atrium 234 Mall Boulevard Suite G-50 King of Prussia, Pennsylvania 19406 Fee Fees vary based on membership tier.

A recent article of TIME magazine purported to explain “why we have entered the post-trust era.” Indeed, we seem to be in a time where people act inappropriately and then refuse to take responsibility for their actions. Who can we blame for world issues, or contentions over religion, or the outcomes of our governments, or the state of the environment? More to the point, why do we spend so much time and energy looking to pin the blame on someone (usually anyone but ourselves)? With this in mind, it’s no wonder that organizations who promote accountability are more successful and more productive. In this workshop, you will learn about what accountability is, how to promote it in your organization, and how to become more accountable to yourself and others. Learning Objectives Understand what accountability is and what events in history have shaped our view of it Explore the cycle of accountability Identify requirements for personal accountability including assertiveness & attitude Discover elements needed for managers and supervisors to create a culture of accountability Examine case studies to better understand what needs to be done to foster & maintain accountability Build skills required for accountability including goal setting & setting expectations Learn to write a clear agreement to support communication & accountability Create an Action Plan for application Who Should Attend Supervisors Managers Team Leads Individual Contributors When Day 1: Tuesday, November 7, 2023; 1PM - 3PM Day 2:  Tuesday, November 14, 2023; 1PM - 3PM Where Live Online Fee Fees vary based on membership tier.
