Leading When You’re Not In Charge! Leadership Without Authority

Whatever it is we call ourselves in the office, we all need to get work done while dealing with other people. But leadership today isn’t like 40 years ago. Getting people to work by saying “because I’m the boss” just doesn’t work anymore. Because being a leader isn’t about having authority or exercising power. Being a leader is a learned skill. It means acting in a way that people are moved to action by your influence without overt displays of authority. As Ken Blanchard said, “The key to successful leadership today is influence, not authority”. To be a personal leader means to be able to envision, organize, act, coordinate, understand motivations, and be a catalyst for action in the workplace. This one-hour webinar is a powerful learning tool for people who seek to become true leaders; the catalysts that promote positive change. Join this webinar to understand how to get people working as a team, to set goals, organize, align, and act together, to show positive results without any supervisory role. Regardless of your title, we all need to "get things done" while working with others. The days of "Because I'm the boss" are long gone (even if you are the boss). This webinar will share insights into how to lead, get things done, engage others, and shape outcomes without formal authority. Leadership is not about having the power to exercise your authority. Leadership is about behaving in ways that influence the feelings, thoughts, and actions of others.
