This two-day interactive workshop supports participants in developing their self-awareness through the development of critical skills to support them in effectively leading their teams to a higher level of performance, cohesion and sustainability, through continuous learning and improvement.
In today’s workplace, there is an expectation for individuals to work cohesively together as teams. Yet, the effectiveness of teams can be inconsistent. What differentiates a high-performing team from one characterized as under-performing? What is the role of leadership in these two divergent outcomes? What can you do to become a more effective leader managing a high-performing team?
This two-day interactive workshop supports participants in developing their self-awareness through the development of critical skills to support them in effectively leading their teams to a higher level of performance, cohesion and sustainability, through continuous learning and improvement.
The University of Ottawa’s Professional Development Institute (The Institute), originally branded the Centre for Continuing Education, was established over 25 years ago to offer higher learning opportunities to private and public-sector professionals and the community at large in Ottawa.
Over the years, we developed and nurtured expertise, growing significantly in both course offerings and new specialty knowledge areas, outgrowing its original mandate.
In late 2018, our organization was rebranded as the Professional Development Institute. The previous designation no longer encapsulated the breadth and depth of current and future offerings nor did it reflect our expanded mandate and reach.
Our Mission:
The Institute has been recognized as mission critical to the University of Ottawa and at the forefront of professional development in Ottawa and beyond.
We have greatly diversified our programming, developed strategic partnerships with both government and private industry, offered event-based learning and conferences, established co-designed programs with key government sectors, and more.
The highly sought-after “Institute” designation is rarely granted by the University administration, and done so only after very careful consideration.
A rigorous approval process, involving the President, the Provost and the Vice-Presidents, must validate the rationale and justification for the use of the ‘Institute’ label.
The fact that we have been granted this distinguished designation is testimony to our organization, its accomplishments and its potential, and to the dedication and engagement of our staff and expert instructors.
Whether you work in formalized teams or on your own, your overall success relies on your ability to work with others. Success is no longer dependent on your technical abilities alone. “Emotional Intelligence” now plays a more pivotal role in determining your overall success.
Teams are fundamental. Your team is your most treasured resource and support. They are the ones that make results happen. We have a responsibility to ensure we call out their highest and truest potential. That is how the team and each individual within, will find meaning in the work they do.
Workplace workshops and seminars are offered for a variety of topics, all custom designed to meet the needs of your business.
Two heads are better than one, but any more can be aggravating for those involved. Group decisions shouldn't be driven by the loudest voice or the most senior person in the room. Learning how to make decisions as a group comes from having collaboration and communication skills.
This specially designed virtual live instructor-led course has been developed to help you navigate your new work-from-home environment.
