SEVEN STYLES IN LEADERSHIP AND DECISION-MAKING

Workshop

We need strong leaders who welcome changes, doubts and contradictions, who do not perceive the individual as a threat, who value people responsible for themselves, and take uncertainty as a chance.

Reinhard K.Sprenger

For those who want to be aware of their management and decision-making style.

This workshop is an experimental field in which the participants live through the 7-step evolution of decision-making styles — from «Order» to «Team responsibility».

Every style is experienced both as a leader and subordinate. Besides, you can learn the capacity of each style as a leadership tool and get a view of the evolutionary movement to organizational democracy.

The dynamic of the workshop is supported with physical warm-ups, lateral thinking games, cases for creativе problem-solving and many other exercises. This makes the learning process relaxed, interesting, emotional.
