Description

This one-day class will explore the mystery of why we follow some people and ignore others. Through discussions and activities, you will be able to identify the essential behaviors of a leader, learn how to think like a leader, and gain valuable knowledge in how to build your own following as an individual contributor. It’s important to demonstrate leadership behaviors even when you don’t manage a team. Explore challenges of leading without formal authority with your peers across NIH and explore how to best leverage relationships and hold others accountable.

Key Topics
  • Become a "Go To" person, rising above the ordinary, creating positive change, building rapport, meeting needs others ignore, and demonstrating integrity
  • Identify essential behaviors of a successful leader, maintain a positive and resilient attitude, and build a personal growth program to support the demands of leadership
  • Create positive change, maintain an optimistic and resilient attitude, and invest in the development of others
