How can your natural strengths help you maximize your leadership effectiveness and impact? In this interactive three-hour workshop, participants will complete an assessment called CliftonStrengths, which identifies your innate talents and patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving. The assessment reveals each participant’s Top 5 Strengths, providing insight into how they naturally show up at work and how those strengths can be used to lead with greater clarity, confidence, and influence. Participants will receive a personalized strengths report during the session and learn how to apply their unique talents to real leadership situations. By the end of the workshop, participants will walk away with practical, strengths-based strategies to enhance performance, develop others, and navigate challenges more effectively.
Participants will:
- Complete the CliftonStrengths Top 5 Assessment by Gallup prior to the training date to access a personalized report (provided by CalTrin at no cost – $25 value)
- Review and explore their individual talent areas to maximize leadership style and effectiveness
- Learn strategies to leverage their strengths to achieve professional goals and overcome challenges
Who Should Attend: Leaders with direct reports, including Supervisors, Managers, and Directors at family resource centers, community-based organizations, Child Abuse Prevention Councils, and other child- and family-serving systems.
