Join Mike Kensington for this half-day Auckland workshop helping you to develop your leadership skills:

Being a leader in your design business
Thursday 30th March, 9am–12.30pm
Studio One Toi Tu, Auckland

Refreshments from Atomic Coffee and Serious Popcorn. Thanks Guys!

Often when you run your own business, you are juggling so many things – developing business, keep clients happy, writing proposals, doing the doing, balancing the books, fixing IT problems – and of course keeping staff happy.

Wouldn’t it be so much easier if staff just managed themselves – did as they were asked, did it well, created no fuss or dramas and didn’t leave. Although this can’t be guaranteed, one major step to getting the most out of your team is to improve your skills as a leader.

This workshop is about becoming a better boss and a better leader.

We will cover the following:

• What is leadership and how does it make your design business more successful?
• What does ‘good’ leadership look like and how does that compare to your leadership style? (we will do a short self-assessment in the workshop)
• How do I ‘lead’ every day without it being another thing I’ve got to do?
• How can you use good leadership to get the most out of your team – what they do (productivity) and how they do it (behaviour)?
• How does leadership link to the culture of your business?
