Learn the master techniques for identifying performance gaps in your team and how to bring out their best to get the results you need.

As a leader, you’re responsible for motivating your team to achieve. But each person on your team brings their own unique strengths, depth of experience, confidence level and motivation (Skill and Will). To be effective, it’s critical to understand where each person on your team stands and what it will take to get the results you need. If you ignore this diversity in your team members, your team can waste energy moving in the wrong direction, get frustrated with a lack of success, or just disengage from a project or team. No organization can afford that. In this workshop, participants learn a user-friendly, comprehensive framework for identifying performance gaps of skill and/or will, based on the work of Ken Blanchard, Max Landsberg, Jim Collins, Daniel Pink and others.
