From Manager to Inspiring Leader

This course is Going PRO eligible.

Build high-performing teams that deliver results.

In today's fast-paced workplace, great managers don't just direct—they inspire, adapt, and drive real impact. This intensive program equips you with proven tools in emotional intelligence, communication, and coaching to transform team dynamics, resolve conflicts constructively, and achieve measurable business success. Featuring a personalized DISC behavioral assessment, interactive live sessions, and immediate takeaways you can apply the next day.

After completing this program, you will be able to:

  • Adapt your leadership to different personalities and situations
  • Drive motivation and collaboration for higher team performance
  • Resolve conflicts and coach using proven frameworks like GROW
  • Build resilient, high-performing teams that consistently exceed goals

Core Skills You'll Build:

Lead with Self-Awareness:
Use DISC to identify your strengths, adapt your style, and unlock each team member's potential.

Communicate Like a Pro:
Master active listening, persuasion, negotiation, and clear messaging to align teams and reduce misunderstandings.

Ignite Motivation:
Tailor approaches to individual drivers, inspiring higher engagement and performance in hybrid or remote environments.

Solve Problems Strategically:
Tackle challenges with root-cause analysis, data-driven decisions, and collaborative brainstorming.

Turn Conflict into Growth:
Handle difficult conversations with confidence, build trust, and resolve issues constructively.

Coach for Excellence:
Apply the GROW model to develop talent, empower your team, and create a high-impact, resilient culture.


Why This Program Stands Out:

  • Start with a personalized DISC Assessment to uncover your leadership style and your team's behavioral drivers—gain actionable insights to leverage strengths and boost collaboration
  • Engage in real-time discussions, role-playing, and problem-solving with peers and experts for deeper retention and networking
  • Walk away with strategies to motivate teams, navigate tough conversations, and foster a culture of empowerment—right from day one
  • Earn 3 undergraduate credits (BUSN 385) toward a Davenport degree, plus ongoing access to support materials

Who should attend?

  • New or recently promoted managers ready to hit the ground running
  • Experienced leaders facing fresh challenges, like hybrid teams or talent retention
  • Supervisors and team leads eager to boost emotional intelligence and drive better results
