Leadership WorkshopsLeading for Purposeful and Effective Change
Leadership Workshops
To be effective in managing challenging and complex customer experience change, today’s leader needs two specific types of capabilities and attributes to achieve purposeful and impactful change that empowers customer-centric growth.
Developing Career Skills and Capabilities
Many leaders will have undertaken degrees and courses in establishing and furthering their careers. They will most likely be a subject matter expert in their field and an accomplished professional in their chosen discipline.
More than ever leaders today need a new skill set to influence behaviour change in their team and cross-functionally. Motivating and influencing attitudes and behaviours to accomplish alignment with their organisation’s customer experience strategy and goals.
Future-Facing Leadership
To be effective in customer experience transformation, leaders need customer-centric skills and capabilities to balance their strategic skills with human skills. Customer centricity puts customers at the centre of organisations thinking, problem-solving and decision-making. An effective customer-centric leader connects customer and culture to put customer needs at the centre of leadership, strategy and operations.
The human skills needed to influence change to support organisational-wide customer-centric thinking and doing are steeped in Emotional Intelligence (EQ): the ability to understand and influence your own and others’ emotions.
For example, higher emotional intelligence enables leaders to be effective in self-awareness and regulation. Higher EQ also supports customer experience change efforts such as uniting teams, empowering others, understanding different perspectives, being influential, being a great communicator etc. Essential human skills that are the foundation for a purposeful and effective customer-centric leader.
