Listen as Leader
Leveraging the two greatest assets you have to become a powerful leader: your ears.
Speaker - Preston True of Accomplishment Coaching
Date: Monday, April 28 Time: 7-9 p.m.
Most of us have been taught that the people who speak most are the leaders. So it would make sense that most of us spend more time talking when we're offered a leadership role - whether at work, in our career, at home or in our other communities.
But, what if it were the exact opposite? What if "talking as leader" (although important at times) was actually devastating our leadership and ability to get to where we want to go personally or professionally? What if those who listen most clearly, compassionately and "contextually" were actually positioned far greater for effective leadership?
Join us at the Shrine Career Network meeting where we'll explore the power of effective listening. Whether you're a career or job-seeker, or a business professional, developing effective listening skills and insight can be one of the most important tools in your career search, business or relationship toolbox.
Join us Monday, April 28, for our Listen as Leader workshop. Preston True of Accomplishment Coaching will lead us in this workshop, where you'll:
- Discover - how we can miss up to 70% of what's actually being said
- Distinguish - the place from which someone's speaking (context) rather than get seduced by the story they're sharing (content)
- Self diagnose - how you're currently listening and "course-correct" in the moment
- Get inspired - to get into action and have more conversations that lead to powerful results
Please RSVP to preston.true@ accomplishmentco aching.com to let us know you'll be attending. We all want more conversations, so all are welcome.
