- Session 2 – Managing Expectations We will introduce the “Human Performance Model” and go deep on setting expectations and measuring/observing results.
- Session 3 – Effective Feedback We will wrap up the “Human Performance Model” by looking at how we can provide effective feedback and introduce the Toyota Kata Coaching methodology in our daily work.
- Session 4 –Drama Triangle We will discuss the components of personal responsibility and learn about the Drama Triangle, how it comes about and how it can be transformed. We will explore specific practices for increasing personal presence and improving listening to both exit the Drama Triangle and minimize the frequency of it happening.
- Session 5 -Personal Communication, Criticism and Conflict
We will explore further topics in personal communication and explore how we can use everything we’ve learned to better manage criticism and engage in “healthy conflict” at work.
This program is designed for companies that have embarked on a continuous improvement journey and desire to develop standard leadership behaviors to sustain their gain. We encourage companies to send at least three members of the leadership team that can commit to the entire program.
“I have utilized the tools taught in the class to improve my daily interactions with all employees. I’ve seen substantial progress from a range of those employees, some of which have become quite the contributors to our Continuous Improvement Program.”
