Lead, Follow or Get Out of The Way

Decisions to lead or follow have a large impact on the productivity of the team and organisation.

Delegates learn:

• The attributes that make you worth following as well as how to grow the most important leadership qualities
• How to create an environment where people can thrive.

Sticky Teams!: The Art of Building Great Teams

This program is for any company that needs better teamwork, a healthier culture or improved staff engagement. It impacts sales teams, leadership teams and technical teams. It leaves people feeling empowered and united and ready to become more effective team players by shifting behaviours, habits and results; and capitalising on strengths.

Lisa demonstrates how team members can inspire others to deliver long-term positive outcomes. She helps individuals to use the two most important forms of feedback to multiply their own effectiveness and release the talents of those around them.

Up Your Capacity!: How to Raise Your Performance, Your Thinking and Your Results

Setting people on a strategic pathway of continuous improvement, Lisa helps identify what energises, engages, inspires and motivates individuals, while also pointing out what robs, deflates and saps their energy.

The session will explore:

• The power of full engagement for creating personal and professional satisfaction and helping individuals recognise the contribution they make to the company and what it means to perform at your maximum capacity.
• The skills for better communication and how to generate supportive feedback and turn it into better performance

Empowering Women To Lead: Building influence and Capacity

Some of the key attributes of significant leaders are energy, passion, commitment and vision. When you add creativity, connection, empathy and integrity – many strong female traits – there exists greater potential for strong and healthy corporate communities. Most women have more potential and capacity than they currently use. Lisa inspires women to pursue significant goals, use their strengths and increase their capacity, by adapting their behaviour, their habits and their outcomes to achieve goals that matter.

The outcomes:

• Improved teamwork, transparency, connection and communication with colleagues
• Increased confidence to lead and greater consistency in delivering results
