Leadership Vitality

Problem:
Every individual, team, and organization fits on a continuum between death and vitality, and is moving in one way or the other. A leader’s primary responsibility is to help individuals, teams, or organizations become and remain vital. That’s the heart of leadership. If a leader succeeds, observers say, “Good job!” If a leader doesn’t, they say, “Good riddance.” The central problem today is that this work is not getting easier. Times are turbulent; change is rampant; white knuckles abound. Leaders at every level are finding their leadership skills challenged, particularly by the often competing demands placed on them by customers, employees, investors, and a host of other groups. Today, leading is like juggling chainsaws—one wrong toss, or one wrong catch, and the consequences are serious.

Solution:
For the past 20 years, we’ve probed, poked, and peeked into hundreds of corporations, volunteer organizations, and government agencies. We’ve roamed in facilities ranging from sweltering, fire-belching foundries that Dante could well have been describing in his “Inferno” to the pristine, Orwellian “clean rooms” found on high-tech campuses. In each of these locations, we’ve searched and found the critical skills that the most effective leaders use to help their team and organization become vital.

Leadership Vitality is a training session that contains the best of what we learned. Specifically, it helps leaders improve vitality in a way that is sustainable.

Features:
Leadership Vitality is the core training program based on

Living and Working Effectively

Help from Leading Influence Trainers at Vital Skills International

A very small and lucky portion of the population is able to communicate effectively; these are people who are able to meet problems head-on and do not shy away from confrontations; they are people with exceptional communication skills who know the value of a good talk; they are people who utilize their unique skills daily in both their personal lives and their professional lives; often, they are people who have at some point experienced, in one form or another, influencer training.

Influence training is an experience that is more and more highly valued as the world reaches new heights of communication options, seclusion, and independence. With every man out "for himself", it is not surprising that people have lost, or failed to develop effectively, the ability to confront problems and communicate issues; these are keys to living and working to one's fullest potential, yet they are keys very few of us hold.

The situation is not hopeless, however; today, skilled influence trainers, like Vital Skills International, are breathing new life into communications among individuals and workplace teams, helping teams initiate and manage those crucial conversations and crucial confrontations that are so critical to forward movement.

The mission of influencer training is exactly that: to teach individuals to hold critical conversations in a way that is productive, and to teach them the importance of doing so. The concept expands from the individual into the team dynamic; the end result is an entire organization filled with effective communicators capable of agreeing to disagree and finding a common ground while striving to move the organization as a whole forward.

Such is the nature of the work provided by Vital Skills International. Vital Skills International is a group offering influencer training for individuals, teams, and organizations, aimed at effecting productivity and change in the workplace (and in participant's private lives as well; there are no bounds to the benefits of influencer training).

The Vital Skills International Influence Training Products and Seminars are based on the proven concepts put forth in the New York Times Best Sellers, Crucial Conversations, and Crucial Confrontations. As one of only a select few approved associates of the books' authors and founders of Vital Smarts (industry authorities in influence training), the Vital Skills Team are experts with a firm foundation in the field.

Vital Skills International has used the Vital Smarts materials to train groups with a vast range of professional interests; a variety of seminars are offered to suit the express needs of clients, including

• Crucial Conversations Seminars

• Crucial Confrontations Seminars

• Vitality Series Trainings

• Crucial Conversations Labs

The focus of each training is to enhance personal and professional performance by teaching participants how to hold and manage critical conversations that must be had before progress can be made. Vital Skills International believes that the power to change everything lies in the confidence to hold critical conversations and crucial confrontations; their belief is proven in pages of research compiled in the Vital Smarts books and materials. Vital Skills is proud to provide these services to teams and organizations large and small, as they effect positive change one organization at a time.
