ENGAGING FOR GROWTH - COURSE DESCRIPTION

Growth happens when there is focused and sustained effort and energy. Moving people from simply "putting in time" to maximum involvement and energized engagement is an enormous undertaking, but “many hands make light work”! Connected members on high performing teams are extremely engaged and enthusiastic about their ‘work’; they initiate action to convert opportunities into reality.

Did you know that team leadership accounts for most of the variance in team engagement? Enhancing engagement for growth needs purposeful intention and ongoing interaction. Engagement requires strategies such as, empowered and inclusive leadership, safety and connection.  Even though there are no quick fixes when it comes to cultivating and sustaining relationships with others to improve engagement, implementing specific strategies can ensure that growth through engagement happens!

In this program, participants will examine various strategies used to ignite engagement at the individual and team levels.  Participants will be actively engaged throughout the entire session.

OBJECTIVES

  1. Examine the importance of engagement for growth and high performance.
  2. Evaluate strategies for enhancing individual and team engagement.
  3. Understand how to role of model active engagement.
  4. Develop action plans for engaging for growth.
