Taking charge of a senior role is a time of extraordinary risk and opportunity for the leader. During these transitions, there is a limited window to seize the opportunity and make the required impact. This program offers you the opportunity to enhance your capability to “take charge” or to support others to “take charge,” and to successfully undertake new, and usually bigger, roles. In today’s organizations, where the pace of change and the demands on performance are ever increasing, enhancing this capability is an absolute necessity.
Based on extensive research published in the book supplied to participants, Lost in Transition: How Business Leaders Can Successfully Take Charge in New Roles by Richard Elsner and Bridget Farrands, this program will focus on the personal, business and organizational issues leaders need to master as they take on a new role. You will learn how to sharpen your ability to inquire skillfully into your own and other’s experience of transition, and how to make bold and yet safe experiments to broaden the range of your useful behaviors.
