The Visionary Leader: Purpose, Commitment, and Accountability

2023 Annual
This session shows HR practitioners how to augment day-to-day management skills to inspire their organization to the highest levels of performance.

Who comes to mind when you think of a manager? What about a leader? Managing is about getting things done as consistently and efficiently as possible, whereas leading is about deciding what things should get done, charting the course, and empowering people to believe that they are part of something larger than themselves. In times of uncertainty, it is the leaders who rise to the occasion and create inspiration for employees to thrive in their roles.  In this dynamic session, HR practitioners learn what it means to take visionary leadership to the next level as they strive to become influential leaders. You will discover how to identify, create, and communicate a strong vision and how to get buy-in from both the C-Suite and employees alike by creating purpose, securing commitment, and driving accountability.

Learning Objectives:

  • Create and communicate a vision that inspires teams and motivates action.
  • Establish clarity, commitment, standards, responsibility, flexibility, and rewards.
  • Maintain healthy balance between the needs of the organization and needs of individuals.
  • Champion creative thinking and work through difficult challenges with courage.

In-person session offerings are on a first-come, first-served basis.
