Leadership in the Changing World of Meeting Professionals
By
Terri Breining, CMP, CMM

Effective leaders recognize that what they know is very little in comparison to what they still need to learn.  To be more proficient in pursuing and achieving objectives, you should be open to new ideas, insights and revelations that can lead to better ways of accomplishing goals.  This continuous learning process can be exercised in particular through engaging yourself in a constant dialogue with your peers, advisers, consultants, team members, suppliers, customers and competitors. 

Effective leaders have many common qualities.  Making the effort to practice and learn the skills it takes to be an effective leader will enable you to use the style of leadership necessary in any situation you come across. 

This workshop is intended to help those in attendance become more effective leaders and create work environments that are more successful, profitable and enjoyable.  This will be a highly interactive session, providing participants with specific tools and techniques that will allow you to thrive as leaders in your business, community and family.  At the end of this workshop, you will be able to:  

 

·                      Identify blocks to effective leadership and how to handle them 

·                      Understand how you can increase your influence 

·                      Enhance your own success by preparing and enabling those around you 

·                      Hold onto good people and get the most from them
