Ryan White Programs are often financially limited. Health costs continue to rise and funding is always at risk. However, the one asset that appreciates and increases in value in an organization is its most important assets: people (team). People can grow, develop and become more effective if appropriately mentored. Workshop participants will explore topics such as: a leader's key question, a leader's toughest challenge and a leader's primary responsibility. In small groups, participants will answer 3 key questions : What is my Role in the organization? What is my work environment? and How will I develop and grow? Participants will discuss essentials to developing a leadership tool kit to use in their home organization. Through didactic and small group participation, attendees will develop a vision, redesign an organization and foster a culture of excellence.
Learning Objectives:
- Participants will discuss the need for growing successful team members and developing future leaders. The qualties of a dream team coach will be discussed as well as charateristics that prevent leaders from becoming great coaches.
- Participants will discuss the need to create an appropriate climate for mentoring, growing, and nurturing team members. Leaders must be enironmental change agents. Small groups will discuss leader qualities. Approaches to providing growth opportunities for employees will be explored. The development of the appropriate "culture" for growth will be discussed.
- Participants will identify key responsibilities of leaders who mentor and discuss three key things all employees care about (Role, Environment, and Development) and how these items fit in the coaching/ mentoring environment. An assessment inentory will be shared that participants can use and adapt. Particpants will be asked to assess themselves as a learning exercise. Finally, qualities found in successful leaders will be compiled with audience particpation.
