A Leader's Guide to Coordinating Action

This three-part webinar series provides developing leaders with the fundamental skills to effectively coordinate others to take action.

To be an effective leader, you must be able to organise people to achieve business outcomes. This means making and managing requests so work gets delivered as intended.

This skill is useful at all levels of business development, from starting out, to outsourcing work and eventually to building and managing a team. It is useful for business owners, and for anyone who is in a leadership position or has ambitions to become a leader within an organisation.

If you struggle to translate what you want into clear requests and tasks and projects are not delivered as intended, this is the workshop for you. You will learn how to be clear and intentional with your requests, how to negotiate outcomes and deadlines, and how to address factors that may influence the outcome upfront so expectations are set and all parties are on the same page.

This Webinar Series is delivered by, Ian Lees, Leadership Coach and Director of Optimal Future, in partnership with Mum's Garage.

This webinar series is delivered as three 1.5hr workshops, run each week from 12-1:30 pm on Wednesdays, starting 21 October and ending 4 November.
