Leadership Training for Executives and Employees

Definition

What is a Leadership Training?

A leadership training is a 1 to 2-day seminar that imparts essential skills to executives, such as communication, conflict resolution, strategic thinking, and teamwork. Through a mix of input, practical exercises, and exchange, the training offers a deep dive into relevant topics. It is not about one-time lectures but about practice-oriented content that has a lasting impact and prepares leaders for the challenges of the modern workplace.

Through a structured approach, we ensure that our leadership trainings not only impart theoretical knowledge but also strengthen the practical skills that leaders need to thrive in dynamic work environments.

Preparation

Before the training, we conduct a detailed needs analysis to thoroughly understand the current challenges and topics of the participants. Based on this analysis, we develop a customized training format.

Training Day(s):

Theoretical Inputs and Case Studies:
We start with brief theoretical inputs on relevant topics such as communication, conflict resolution, and strategic thinking. These inputs are complemented by practical case studies that reflect typical workplace situations of the participants.
Interactive Workshops and Group Exercises:
Participants collaborate in interactive workshops and apply the learned concepts directly. Example exercises may include role-plays for conflict resolution, team exercises to enhance collaboration, or simulations for strategic decision-making.
Feedback and Coaching:
Throughout the exercises, participants receive feedback from our trainers to continuously improve their skills and develop new perspectives.

Follow-up

After the practical exercises, participants reflect on their experiences and insights. Through group discussions and one-on-one conversations, they deepen their learning and reflect on the applicability in their own work environment.
Ongoing Support:
Our follow-up includes individual coaching and assistance in implementing the learned concepts into daily practice. The Leaders21 digital learning platform supports participants in solidifying their learning and ensuring long-term results.
