The Art of Connection: 7 Relationship-Building Skills Every Leader Needs Now
With Michael Gelb
January 4 - 6, 2019
This dynamic program is based on the exciting discovery that a powerful catalyst for inspiring creative breakthroughs is to guide people to connect with one another first, before trying to solve a problem. When people connect, when they are on the same wavelength, attuned, and in rapport, they are much better at generating – and implementing – new ideas. This is The Art of Connection, the surprising secret of creative problem solving at work and at home. Contemporary research demonstrates that connectedness with others can also be a predictor of longevity, health, and happiness. Connecting effectively is also an important personal and business leadership skill. Through a proven series of energizing activities, this workshop helps you:
- Develop an understanding of your leadership style and learn how to work effectively with other styles
- Discover a stronger sense of connection and rapport in all your relationships
- Learn new strategies for overcoming resistance to creative change and generating buy-in to new ideas
- Improve the communication core competencies of listening, empathy, rapport, and creative conflict resolution
