Managers know that they live in a place best described as a crazy world. It’s a world where expectations are off the charts, requirements are vague, commitments are tenuous, strategic priorities shift as often as a race car, and responsibility is given with marginal authority.

What do most managers do?

They unwittingly jump into the chasm and hope the rope holds. This webinar with Raj Kapur (LinkedIn profile) gets you out of your professional comfort zone, challenges you, creates spirited dialogue, and empowers you to be a more sought-after manager.

This thought provoking session is designed to deliver major attitude adjustments and strong recommendations for conduct that will enable you, in your difficult role, to make a few waves and become productive.

Economic uncertainty, election year dynamics, work pressure, family pressure personal expectations, lower budgets, more responsibility, less rewards – our teams have lots to be stressed about!

In dynamic organizations leaders recognize the need to increase self-awareness, gain greater control over their responses, recognize the contributions of others, value diversity, and communicate more effectively in ever-changing environments. Understanding the 4 primary ways our teams process information will allow us to better prepare for how our organizations may react when under high stress.

In this session you will be introduced to the 4-Way System of thinking, perceiving and reacting in situations during the good and not so good times. Not only will these take-away cues and clues allow us as leaders to diffuse potential high (negative) stress situations, we will be able to react quickly in situations we could not predict. An worthwhile hour that just may spare you hours of future stress!

Webinar Outline:

• The disconnect points
• Introduction to the 4-Way System
• What happens when you are “out of esteem?”
• Understanding the trigger stressors of each of the 4-Ways
• Proven tips and tools for dealing with colleagues who are out of esteem.
• Real life examples where these techniques avoided catastrophe!

Note: The Live Event Is Free with registration as a community member – An executive membership allows you to watch hundreds of Best Practice videos and recasts from the webcast library ($299.00 for 1 year).
