Become the Leader Who Develops Others
Great leaders don’t just give answers. They know how to ask the right questions, build confidence, and help others develop their own solutions.
Join Leaderology for an interactive Lunch & Learn with NWRA’s Future Industry Leaders Alliance (FILA) focused on developing a coaching mindset. In this session, you’ll explore the difference between managing through direction and leading through coaching, take a closer look at your own leadership habits, and learn practical techniques you can use in everyday conversations with your team.
In this 1-hour session, you’ll hear about:
- The difference between coaching and directing, and when to use each approach
- How to recognize your own default leadership and communication patterns
- Asking better questions that help others think through challenges and develop solutions
- Using active listening to create more productive conversations
- Simple ways to bring a coaching mindset into your everyday leadership
Join us for an engaging hour of discussion, reflection, and practical takeaways you can put to work right away.
Keep the learning and connections going at the FILA Fall Summit, October 13-16!
