    Delegation is an essential skill for maximizing productivity, fostering team growth, and enhancing organizational efficiency. However, it can also be one of the hardest skills to master, with many leaders struggling to let go of control. This session will break down the concept of delegation into manageable, actionable steps. We'll explore the "Delegation Greenlights" method - an approach to help leaders determine when, how, and what to delegate. The workshop will also focus on common delegation roadblocks such as micromanagement, fear of loss of control, and not knowing where to start. Using real-life scenarios and hands-on exercises, attendees will leave with a clear understanding of how to delegate effectively, develop their team members, and scale their leadership impact. 

    Learning Objectives: 

    Learners will be able to:

    • Identify the key factors to assess when deciding whether to delegate a task or responsibility. 
    • Evaluate their team's readiness and identify when delegation is appropriate using the "Should I?" and "Can I?" framework. 
    • Distinguish between micromanaging and helping, learning how to support their team without taking over. 
    • Create a clear plan for communicating expectations and giving feedback, ensuring their delegation process leads to growth and success.

    Ever wonder why some workplaces feel like a breath of fresh air while others make you want to pull your hair out? The answer lies in the invisible force called "workplace culture." The unwritten rules, shared values, and subtle cues shape how we think, feel, and act at work. 

    In this eye-opening session, we'll peel back the layers of workplace culture. You'll discover how something as innocuous as how the boss dresses or the jokes traded in the breakroom can profoundly impact everything from motivation to ethics. 

    Learning Objectives:

    Participants will be able to:

    • Analyze the unique elements that define and contribute to workplace culture. 
    • Describe the four ways culture is transmitted to employees and is sustained throughout a workplace. 
    • Explain the role that culture plays in the success or failure of an organization. 
    • Assess their own organization through the lens of workplace culture. 

    Session Details: 

    7:30 am - welcome and networking
