The Yin and Yang of Management and Leadership

The Yin and Yang of Management and Leadership: same, same but different

Facilitator

Maria Eliadis Coaching

Overview

Management and leadership are often talked about as if they are interchangeable – the same thing. Yin and yang refer to the fact that while management and leadership are interconnected, they can, in practice, be opposites. Being able to recognise and respond to these differences and the tensions that can arise is vital for the development of confident, responsive, and effective personal leadership practice.

This workshop draws from the principles of Harvard University’s renown Adaptive Leadership program to explain these differences, why they exist and how they impact on workplace dynamics. The workshop focuses on what you need to navigate the differences courageously, confidently and successfully.

Whether your managing dynamic change, building a high-performance team, or embarking on an exciting new initiative do it with confidence in your leadership capacity, choices and approaches.

This workshop is designed for senior managers, emerging/new leaders, and team leaders.
