LEARNING IN THE WORKPLACE

To continue to reinforce your learning from this workshop and prior to the follow up session, when you return to your team use the table below to assist you to reflect on the concepts introduced during day 1. Your reflection may also incorporate other behaviours that you have observed from other leaders within your workplace as well. You should aim to identify at least 10 different situations.

As part of your reflection, identify some of your key strengths and opportunities for improvement in the way you apply leadership within the workplace. What steps might you be able to take to improve your own leadership practice?

What was the outcome? Describe this in terms of the characteristics of an

effective team leader.

What attributes of an effective team leader did

PROGRAM OVERVEIW

This program is designed to introduce some of the key concepts and skills supporting effective team leadership. For those of you new to the leadership experience, the program should help you to digest some of the important principles underpinning successful team leadership within the workplace. You should remember though, that although this program does focus on many of the important areas of successful team leadership, further application of the concepts, principles and skills will help to refine and reinforce your leadership practise. To this end, the program hopefully will encourage you to expand your leadership knowledge and skills by taking up work based or other, more formalised learning opportunities at the conclusion of this program. Good luck in your leadership journey!

Program Objectives: The key objectives of this program are to: 1.) Identify and develop the characteristics of an effective team leader. 2.) Identify and use an appropriate leadership style for the team. 3.) Identify and apply appropriate strategies to improve team performance and

outcomes.
