Details

The critical element that differentiates the successful manager is the application of effective interpersonal skills. All too often, people have taken on management responsibilities on the strength of their technical or specialist skills. However, a management role depends on achieving results through others which requires a significantly different skill set.

How can you ensure you have the right mix of emotional intelligence and leadership skills to: meet corporate objectives, keep your team motivated, inspired AND performing? Designed specifically for technical people with new management responsibility, this course will help you build emotional intelligence and your skills in leading, managing, empowering, influencing and driving the performance of others to meet organisational and personal objectives.

You will spend time revising behaviours, beliefs, values and attitudes, and then use this awareness to help develop the skills to enable you to manage, lead and motivate others to meet and exceed objectives.

You will take away a portfolio of realistic, relevant and immediately usable models, techniques and approaches that will dramatically improve your performance as a manager, help sustain productive working relationships with colleagues and build a committed and highly performing team.

Our instructor faculty boasts vast experience in both management, leadership and behavioural psychology to provide you with meaningful insights, skills, tools and tactics. Don’t miss out.

Speaker/s

Peter Giutronich

Peter is a dynamic corporate trainer with 25 years experience in the field of personal and professional growth. Graduating with a double degree in Law and Commerce, Peter worked in the corporate world for 10 years before training in the Hoffman process. This internationally accredited psychotherapeutic program offers extraordinary potential in assisting individuals toward positive life changes.

Peter subsequently established a private consulting practice in Sydney, developing cultural change programs for groups and organisations. In doing so, Peter began to facilitate organisation change, and became keenly aware that change often fails due to ineffective communication and role modeling by leaders. Good personal leadership drives effective corporate leadership that in turns drives a productive and constructive culture.

Having seen, first-hand and consistently, the importance of effective leadership to successful organisation change, Peter now specialises in individual leader development. “Whenever I see outstanding corporate performance I see outstanding leadership”.

An engaging presenter, he focuses on observable and measurable change across the full complement of executive behaviours: effective communication, persuasion and influence, vision and goal setting, team building, performance management, conflict resolution and mediation.

Through his experience as a personal development consultant, Peter is skilled at perceiving potential obstacles for new and developing leaders and helping those individuals renounce and overcome those behavioural challenges. Peter’s perceptions are verified through his qualified use of tools including Human Synergistics LSI, Emotional Intelligence, the Enneagram and DISC. He uses these instruments to raise awareness, understanding and growth. Peter’s programs empower individuals and groups to surface, discuss and resolve root causes of unhelpful behaviours, including resistance to change, team dysfunction, and poor motivation.

Peter’s consultancy work involves mentoring, coaching, and delivering workshops with senior management, in which he imparts skills that senior executives can then pass on down the line. His engagements have involved a variety of workplaces. Clients range from new companies keen to begin their initiatives with clear goals and behavioural implementation pathways, to organizations where the culture is entrenched and suboptimal behaviours seem intractable. Peter has worked with a variety of NGO’s and assisted their Boards and their Executive in developing strategy and structure for their ongoing operation. Peter has also been working for some years in the resource sector, which has led him to focus on safety leadership and the importance of cultural norms and individual personal responsibility. He is particularly interested in the link between ones’ beliefs and thinking and ones’ behaviour. This has led to significant improvements in the safety records of the companies for which he works.

Peter has clients across a wide spectrum of industry, both in Australia and internationally. He is currently involved with the Resource Sector, Government agencies, small business, NGOs and multinational corporations including Anglo Gold Ashanti, Banker Trust, Westpac, AAMC, Exxon Mobil, NSW Department of Education and Training, Liverpool Hospital, Pillar Administration, Leo Burnett Australia, St Anthony Family Care, The Holdsworth Community Centre, Northcott Society and L’Oreal Australia.
