My Leadership Tools – Current Courses

My Leadership Tools includes a wealth of leadership learning and we add new courses every month.

Here is just a sample of some of the courses you have full access to with a membership on My Leadership Tools:

Assertive Communication

Do you sometimes feel as though others don’t listen to what you have to say or that people readily dismiss or undermine your views? Perhaps you hesitate to speak up. Or, maybe you tend to handle situations aggressively, which results in others viewing you as hostile in your approach. By learning how to be more assertive without being aggressive, you can stand up for yourself, and become a strong, confident and respected communicator.

Breaking Down Silos by Enhancing Communication

A siloed organization that fails to share critical information within and across departments will likely have problems such as misalignment, inefficiency, and missed opportunities that hinder the organization’s ability to adapt, innovate, and thrive. Join us as we explore the problems with silos, the benefits of breaking them down and how to get started on improving communication within and between departments in your organization.

Building a Growth Mindset

Building a Growth Mindset

A growth mindset is a vital attribute for effective leadership. Leaders who cultivate this mindset embrace challenges and foster innovation, while those lacking it may struggle to adapt to change and hinder their team’s development and organizational growth. Developing a growth mindset allows individuals and companies to realize their potential, increase resilience, and achieve success. We’ll walk you through the distinction between fixed and growth mindsets, and some strategies you can put into practice right away to begin building your growth mindset.

Building Authentic Relationships

Building Authentic Relationships

When a leader is inauthentic in their relationships, the impact on the team and the organization is significant: eroded trust, diminished credibility, strained communication, reduced team cohesion, increased workplace stress, and limited potential for personal and organizational growth are all very real possibilities. Join us to learn what makes relationships truly authentic, what some of the challenges can be and some steps you can take to improve your authenticity.

Building Cohesive Teams: Introduction

Building Cohesive Teams: Introduction

A dysfunctional team often grapples with communication breakdowns, lack of trust, and an inability to collaborate effectively. These challenges can impede productivity, hinder creativity, and foster a negative work culture. Patrick Lencioni’s “Five Behaviors” model offers a transformative approach to address these pain points. Join us to learn the basics of this model and how it can help leaders to address the symptoms of a dysfunctional team.

Common Challenges When Implementing DEIB Initiatives and How to Address Them

Many leaders would agree that building Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB) in their organization is not only a matter of social responsibility but also critical for organizational success and sustainability. However, the implementation of DEIB initiatives is not without its challenges. As always, the best way to deal with challenges is to be prepared–know what to expect and plan, in advance, how to address the challenges or avoid them altogether.

Giving Constructive Feedback Through Everyday Conversations

A lot of misconceptions—and fear—surround the word “feedback.” Often, we get into the mindset that feedback only exists to provide a “reset” for employees during high-pressure performance reviews. A leader’s failure to provide their employees with regular and constructive feedback can lead to limited employee growth and productivity, a culture of uncertainty and anxiety and an erosion of trust between leaders and their teams.

Problem Employee or Employee with a Problem?

As a leader, it’s crucial to be able to discern between a “problem employee” (the one you want to move-off your team) and an”employee with a problem” (the one who, with a bit of support could become a high performer). While the terms might sound similar, they refer to fundamentally different situations and how they are managed can significantly impact the team dynamic and overall productivity.

Rebuilding Trust After Breakdown

Rebuilding Trust After Breakdown

In the dynamic landscape of today’s workplaces, trust is the cornerstone of effective collaboration and successful teamwork. When trust is compromised, whether due to miscommunication, misunderstandings, or conflicts, it can erode productivity, hinder progress, and ultimately result in a toxic work environment. A breakdown in trust can happen to anyone; the true test of an effective leader is in the effort they make to rebuild that trust.

Setting Clear Goals for You and Your Team

Setting Clear Goals for You and Your Team

Creating workplace goals can be challenging due to the vagueness surrounding objectives, often leading to a lack of clarity among team members. Additionally, aligning individual goals with broader organizational priorities can present difficulties, as can ensuring that goals are both realistic and achievable within specified time frames. Implementing a SMART goal framework can help ensure alignment, clarity, and success.
