Leadership course details

Every great leader shares the same need to understand people while understanding themselves. They need to know how people are motivated and how to communicate with people in a way that can be effective. They need to have the self awareness to know their own strengths and weaknesses and the self-mastery to utilise their personal qualities in order to lead effectively.

Self-awareness, self-mastery and the ability to understand others can come from an understanding of psychological type.

Psychological type is a simple model with complex implications for the ways in which we perceive and make sense of experience. The psychological type model assumes that various habits of the mind influence how we pay attention to and how we make sense of as well as how we may express what we've seen or experienced. The Psychological type model was originated by Carl Jung. Katharine Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers further developed Jung's theoretical model and actualised it in the form of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator(MBTI)

A workshop with a Elite LD limited will give you the foundation you need to apply the psychological type model to leadership.

This will enable you to:

Understand the basic components of the psychological type model i.e the preference pairs or dichotomies.
Readily identify specific communication patterns, as well as the strengths of these patterns and potential issues that must be acknowledged and addressed.
Clarify and reframe information to better suit the communication styles of others.
See MBTI as a tool for building stronger relationships among all individuals in a team.
Communicate more completely and listen more intently.
See how psychological type influences and controls the contributions and potential barriers involved in leading groups through problem solving.
Identify leadership strengths and blind spots by type.
