Successfully leading a team takes a unique and different set of skills than those of an individual contributor. It’s hard to be a good boss! Many leaders and managers have been promoted due to their individual competence, but struggle when it comes to leading and managing people.

When managers fail, it is usually because they were unable to achieve important results. That failure typically stems from two causes:

1.  They manage others before managing themselves.
2. They manage people instead of letting them manage themselves against shared expectations.

Why the 7 Habits for Managers

The 7 Habits for Managers equips team leaders to address these basic issues and improve how they achieve sustainable results through and with others. This solution distinctly focuses on who a manager IS, not just what they DO. Its uniqueness is the lens of the 7 Habits framework — and the way it applies new mindsets, skills, and tools towards becoming a great leader who can consistently deliver results. Whether leaders have been in their roles for some time, are brand new, or are emerging leaders, this program will enable them to effectively lead and manage their teams.

You work with a set of tools that equip you to meet modern-day management challenges, including conflict resolution, prioritization, performance management, trust, execution, collaboration and team and employee development. Give your employees the freedom to contribute fully and unleash their potential. Only then can you achieve lasting results.

The answer against disengagement

Research* shows that:

• Organizations spend less than 50% of their time on the most important organizational goals.
• Only 14% of employees believe that they contribute to the organization’s success.
• Less than half of the employees know the organization’s objectives.

The remarkable thing is that this data is universal; whether we’re talking about the US, the Netherlands or Asia. The figures aren’t limited to one region or one sector or even one age group. Employees everywhere are overloaded with too many tasks and priorities. They’re unaware of the main objectives and consequently their results are less than excellent. And there are only a few organizations that have the style of open communication that could partly overcome this.

This practice-driven training is an intense experience. You go from getting good results to achieving long-term, excellent results.
