The high-performance leader: Fundamental skills for success
Led by: Lance Burdett

Welcome to ‘Adaptive Leadership’

Led by: Belinda Brosnan

This full-day masterclass will be held on Monday 26 June 2023. 

ABOUT YOUR MASTERCLASS

In this masterclass, Belinda will help you ‘tune-in’ to your own self-leadership, so you can become adaptive whilst navigating yourself and others through ongoing uncertainty.

It may seem simple, but, becoming more aware of how you approach situations is the first step toward handling them better and making the most of your opportunities.  It’s all about moving out of autopilot by taking control of your own actions and your career trajectory so you can be adaptive in how you not only lead your team, but those who are peers and leaders above.

Leading in this new era of work, means being okay with the discomfort of trying something new. Sometimes you have to have one of those ‘tough conversations’ with yourself. And Belinda is just the person to inspire you to do it.

WORKSHOP SESSION:

PART 1:  ASSESS

Get out of cruise control so you lead yourself consciously and stop the self-sabotage. When we’ve been operating on autopilot for so long, exploring your mindset, habits and patterns of behaviour help you identify the situations that get in your way, and where positive change opportunities exist.

PART 2:  ALIGN

Before taking action, in this part of the workshop you will get to explore your aspirations and values so you are better placed to make decisions and understand how to lead with intention. You’ll suddenly see everything with fresh eyes, as you identify the changes that will create an impact for you and others. This is where creating your own positioning roadmap ahead will mean you live and lead aligned to your core values whilst being more influential.

PART 3:  ACTION

It’s never just black and white, right or wrong. Instead, learn how to open your mind (and your ears) to understanding for closer connections, better decision-making and stronger leadership. This is where you will create an action plan for the future, pulling together everything you’ve learned from the day.  You will walk away with a strategy for achieving your goals, but also the tools to create this process as an ongoing ritual that will see small consistent practices result in you being a more decisive and influential leader.
