- Engage and empower the organization

Great leaders involve others in making decisions, create a culture of inclusion, and unleash their employees’ potential by giving them the appropriate freedom to act on their own.
What outcome is achieved?
Leading an Empowered Workforce Part 1 revolutionizes the decision making process by employing the collective wisdom and horsepower of all stakeholders. Critical outcomes include:
- All stakeholders become engaged and supportive of decisions
- Bureaucratic and organizational barriers crumble
- Employees are appropriately challenged to elevate their level of responsibility
- Greater alignment and collaboration between leaders and employees
What do participants learn?
Participants explore two simple but powerful models – The Decision Making Model™, Equal Onus™ – through which they learn to:
- Recognize the leader's responsibility in gathering stakeholder input and keeping them engaged throughout the decision making process
- Apply a four step model to ensure alignment, contribution, and commitment in the decision making process
- Harness key principles to create a culture of engagement within the organization
How does it work?
Two powerful and integrated models are taught, discussed and practiced, all in relation to the organization and culture. Highlights of this full-day leadership development program include:
- Study a real world case where many stakeholders were required to contribute to a difficult decision
- Critique recent decisions made within the client organization against the Decision Making Model, and practice applying it to an upcoming issue
- Study the company culture and score it against the optimum model of Equal Onus
- Practice in an activity that challenges participants to demonstrate the concepts learned throughout the day
