What do you do when someone (including your peers or boss) doesn't do the thing, or does it late, or does it poorly? What do you say? How do you say it? What do you listen for? In this seminar you'll learn what to say, and how to say it, every time someone isn't accountable.
You'll leave with real skill - having practiced holding someone else accountable a few times will arm you with the confidence and skill to go apply this in the work place.
You'll learn how to 'start' any conversation - whether it's holding someone accountable, setting expectations, or negotiating a pay raise, you'll learn how to get the other person to willfully participate in any conversation.
Most importantly, you'll learn that the “scary” parts of leadership aren't scary. We'll demystify the undercurrents of accountability and conflict, arming you with the tools you need to navigate any conversation in the workplace for years to come.
Whether you're seeking to "lead from the middle," or have an existing team and want a proven new skill set, this training is designed to help current leaders and individual contributors both learn how to influence and hold others accountable from where they are on their career path.
We'll cover how to:
Set crystal clear expectations and communicate flawlessly with your team.
Help to foster an accountability culture with your team.
Handle conflict with ease, without creating trust issues among your team members.
Use specific language to bring people together and build alignment and make progress without (or with minimal) friction.
Learn how to influence accountability in those around you.
We’ll hear from Erik Berglund
Erik, the Founder of The Language of Leadership, is dedicated to empowering leaders by instilling the habit of using the Language of Leadership. Through this transformative habit, leaders transition away from the Chief Problem Solver role, fostering the development of effective teams. Erik's approach allows leaders to reclaim their time and, more importantly, to empower and nurture the growth of their people.
At the young age of 20, Erik embarked on his entrepreneurial journey by running his first company, a residential painting franchise. It was during this venture that he discovered a profound appreciation for coaching, recognizing the transformative power it holds in people's lives. Erik's fascination with the growth and development of individuals, the acquisition of new skills, and the cultivation of fresh mindsets sparked his enduring passion.
While successfully leading his painting franchise, Erik's leadership journey took a significant turn at 29 when he assumed a leadership role over a sizable team that included senior members and former peers. Confronted with the challenges of this new dynamic, he realized that his coaching skills were insufficient for the complexity of the situation.
Determined to overcome this hurdle, Erik persuaded his company to appoint him as a 'coaching coach,' a pivotal role that allowed him to refine his coaching abilities and turn around both his leadership approach and the team's dynamics.
Throughout this transformative journey, Erik unearthed his true passion for leadership. This realization prompted him to delve into introspection, asking himself and others hard questions that ultimately led to valuable insights. These challenging questions and their enlightening answers have now evolved into a course that Erik is delighted to share with you.
