Leadership Image: Asset or Liability | Leadership image encompasses many things: personality, behavior, body language and speaking style, as well as formal status and physical appearance. And because your effectiveness as a leader is tied to your image, it can be either an asset or a liability as you engage in the roles of leadership. | 12 8 08 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
7 |
Building an Authentic Leadership Image | Developing your leadership image doesn't need to be a complicated process. Often, gaining the awareness of your current image and its limits goes a long way. Start by getting a good, truthful picture of how you're perceived by others. | 5 8 08 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Coaching Relationship | A good coaching outcome requires a good coaching relationship. Asking the right questions in the beginning sets the tone for a strong coaching partnership. In addition, you should also consider the expectations of your boss or organization. Whether you choose your own coach or are assigned one, you want to be sure that the coach has experience and skills that will help you face your goals and challenges. | 29 7 08 | Free | View In iTunes |

10 |
The Dynamics of Team Coaching | Team coaching involves a single coach - either a skilled outsider or team leader - working with a group of managers or executives. This type of coaching gives members of the group the opportunity to stretch beyond their current abilities. And by partnering with the team in the context of its everyday work challenges, the coach can introduce new ideas and see opportunities to improve team performance. | 27 6 08 | Free | View In iTunes |

11 |
Coaching for Results | Coaching is increasingly popular, but when your time and reputation are on the line, you need to know its true value. Coaching comes in many formats and can address many different issues; the key is to be clear on desired outcomes and work with a coach in a way that emphasizes action and results. | 27 6 08 | Free | View In iTunes |

12 |
Getting Noticed - in a Good Way | Do you dread the notion of touting your own accomplishments? Do you think self-promotion smacks of showing off? If so, you may be a manager who is missing out on the upside of visibility. Self-promotion is increasingly important for career success, but it also offers benefits to your group and the organization. Self-promotion allows you to create opportunities for your direct reports, to keep your boss informed and to foster pride in the work of your group. | 10 4 08 | Free | View In iTunes |

Is Anyone Listening? | Have you ever been in a meeting or a discussion and wondered if the other person was really listening? Many people take their listening skills for granted. We often assume we're listening and that others know they are being heard. But the reality is that we as leaders struggle with tasks and roles that directly relate to listening. Even with the best intentions, you may be sending signals that you aren't listening at all. | 10 4 08 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
14 |
Desperately Seeking Innovation | Today's companies want employees with critical and creative thinking skills, a willingness to adapt, and the capacity to innovate. But the reality is that much of daily work life is routine and geared toward clearing to-do lists. There often isn't time or flexibility for much creativity. However, by applying a few simple strategies, you may find that you're able to get your people excited and more innovative in the workplace. | 10 4 08 | Free | View In iTunes |

Who's in Charge? Balancing Formal and Informal Leadership | There is no ownership in effective crisis leadership. Sure, there might be formal structures in place, but when emergencies strike, leaders step up from many places and take on many roles. In essence, an effective crisis response takes into account the need for balancing formal organizations, as well as those informal networks that bubble up when disaster hits. | 3 4 08 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
16 |
When Plans Fail, Improvise | Crises force people to think and behave in ways that may have been unfamiliar to them prior to a disaster. Whether it's at work or in the community, a crisis demands that people take an emergency-response plan and adapt it as new evidence and factors present themselves. | 3 4 08 | Free | View In iTunes |

Six Ways to Strengthen Your Network | An emerging trend on corporate leadership centers on building relationships, and much of that emphasis stems form the fact that the world's global economy demands an adaptive leadership corps.

Relationship Skills in Demand | A company and its managers rise or fall based on the ability to develop solid relationships. Indeed, a recent study by CCL found that relationship and people skills, and not merely job performance, are what separates a successful executive from the rest. | 4 3 08 | Free | View In iTunes |

Relationship Skills Can Be Learned | Surveys of executives from around the world show that relationship skills are in great demand, and so is the need to improve those skills and put them to use in a changing corporate culture. While they were once considered "soft" skills that some executives simply possessed naturally, relationship skills are something that can, indeed, be learned. | 4 3 08 | Free | View In iTunes |
