Leadership from Within and Personal Vision
January 15, 2020 8:00 am – 1:00 pm
A vision statement, whether for the individual or the organization, allows for a clear definition of the ultimate objective or destination to be achieved within a reasonable (three to five year) timeframe. With a vision in mind, the journey can be plotted and progress tracked. Facilitated by Claude Haw and led by Joe Stelliga, this session will aim to answer: what is your leadership style and how can you be most effective in leading your team? And how can you leverage those around you to effectively deliver on your vision?
Communication and Influence
March 4, 2020 8:00 am – 1:00 pm
There are many communication styles in the workplace. How can you be effective in your role and what communications strategies and techniques can be used to achieve the desired results? What types of influence can you utilize to get the best results and what are the risks associated with each of these approaches? This session will be facilitated and led by Claude Haw.

Managing Group Dynamics and Meeting Facilitation
May 27, 2020 8:00 am – 1:00 pm
One of the many attributes of a great leader is his or her ability to engage people in getting work done together, whether it is to create buy in, generate active participation and/or empower people to take charge. At the core of this ability is the skill of facilitation. Facilitation is a way of providing leadership without taking the reins – to get others to assume responsibility and to take the lead. In this workshop you will explore effective facilitation and group process skills that can help a group work effectively together. Facilitated by Claude Haw and led by Judy Laws.
