HARRY POUND INVITATION

LEADING HIGH PERFORMANCE TEAMS: THE COACHING AND MENTORING ADVANTAGE -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Turn your Managers and Supervisors into LEADERS and achieve long-term phenomenal Team Results. ARE YOU IN OR OUT? DATE: Monday, April 10, 2006 VENUE: Westin Philippine Plaza TIME: 8:00 am to 5:30 pm Times are changing and so are our employees. The traditional ways of getting them to perform through rigid supervision and instruction can be counter-productive. Generic training programs do not seem to deliver the long-term results needed to boost performance. Why? It is because we need to promote learning within our organizations by creating a genuine environment of support to sustain growth and development. So, how do we motivate and guide our employees to be effective contributors to company success? One way is to coach and mentor them. More and more employees are becoming averse to management “control.” What they want is management “coordination.” It is our responsibility as managers and supervisors to encourage and boost employee productivity. We have to face the fact that not all employees readily possess the knowledge and skills to do their jobs well. Another thing is that there are behavioral and attitudinal problems that hinder them from performing their best. The main objective of this seminar is to help managers and supervisors in leading high-performance teams without coercion or fear of punishment. We all want employees with a strong sense of ownership and initiative. Most of the time, we get frustrated that we cannot find people with the same dedication as we do. Perhaps, your people need a different approach. Not to be confused with counseling, coaching and mentoring opportunities are planned interventions that spark motivation and commitment between learner and coach/mentor. This seminar will provide you with the basics on how to be a good mentor and coach to your employees. Remember that your leadership means getting people to enthusiastically attain objectives with precision. Learning how to effectively coach and mentor employees can help develop competencies and positive mindsets that would deliver dramatic results for your company.
