Leadership Skills: Understanding SLII Leadership Styles

Date(s):
April 18 — 19, 2023
Venue:
Courtyard by Marriott Columbia Point
Description:

Who Should Attend:

Supervisors and managers, and employees who will be transitioning to a supervisory or managerial role in the future.

Course Overview:

This course is one of the three courses needed to earn a Leadership Skills Series Certificate. The SLII Experience foundation lies in teaching leaders to diagnose the needs of an individual or a team, and then to use the appropriate leadership style to respond to the needs of the person. It is recognized as both a business language and a framework for employee development that transcends cultural, linguistic, and geographical boundaries. You will stretch your comfort zone and participate in challenging activities that require you to demonstrate your familiarity with SLII content. The course will also teach you how to integrate material into your own personal leadership style.

Safety Measures:

As we continue to monitor and evaluate COVID-19 levels, we understand that the health and safety of our members, staff, and the community are of highest concern. We are asking everyone to do their part. NWPPA and local venues will follow applicable federal, state, and local health protocols. Assumption of Risk: COVID-19 has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. It is not possible for NWPPA or anyone else to completely prevent the presence of the disease. Therefore, if you choose to attend a conference organized by NWPPA and voluntarily enter onto premises where its conference is held, you are accepting the risk, without right of claim against NWPPA and its directors, employees, or agents, of being exposed to, contracting, and/or spreading COVID-19 and its variants.
