Get a Grip on Your Power

As a manager or supervisor, you have been given the task of directing the performance of your team members. The organization that you work for places a substantial expectation on you to motivate your team and ensure that it continuously achieves desired outcomes. This requires that you both plan and implement work activities that will be performed by subordinates. Which, of course, means that you will have to give directions and support to those subordinates.

You are “the boss;” You tell people what to do. You have power. How do you feel about that? Most new supervisors and managers say that that they were uncomfortable in the role of giving directions to subordinates and/or correcting performance deficiencies. This was, they admit, particularly true when the situation was somewhat conflictive.

This DVD and Booklet address the effective use of “just enough” power to get the job done. Learn how to leverage your power to achieve organizational, personal, and client outcomes.
