"Leadership Competencies"
to develop, improve and better utilize your leadership competencies |
"Organization Development"
is of critical importance in providing principles & tools to help you successfully facilitate "change" for Riverside County: to access and diagnose system and personal change, then mobilize a commitment
to a plan of action |
|
Held twice a year --
usually starting around
September & January |
Held at least once a year; sometimes twice a year--starting around September and/or January. Phase II does not have to be taken immediately upon completion of Phase I. |
|
Classes for both Phases consist of 24-30 participants. The Course is spread over approximately 4 months, classes are 4-1/2 hours in length, occurring about every other week, for a total of 10 sessions for Phase I, and 7 sessions for Phase II.
Sessions will run from 8:00 am to 12:30 pm [unless otherwise noted]
& will be held at the CAC, 4th Floor Annex, Room C [Executive Office Conference Room] |
|
Plus 16 hours of
"Crucial Conversations" Training
to provide skills necessary to conduct successful "conversations" in a way that reinforces mutual respect, and
results in improved decision-making and accountability |
To successfully change an organization's culture, strategy, & design requires the understanding that an organization, culture, department, divison or work unit is a system of smaller systems. You'll learn the basics of managing through systems: the theories, principles, techniques and tools of organization development. |
|
Sessions have been structured to optimize the time participants have with
each other and with guest panelists. Learning groups of 6 people each will be assigned; as well as, "homework" to be completed for the next session. |
|
All candidates will be expected to be widely read in all modern management and leadership development literature (homework assignments). |
|
Every session will target a specific variety of the 67 Leadership Competencies. |
|
Session structure resembles an accordion: each one includes a discussion with your learning group about the homework assignment, followed by a "general session", then learning group break out discussions, and a general session report from
each of the learning groups. |
|
While the Leadership Initiative is totally voluntary, the Design Team is hoping that those who enroll will make every effort to make each session. |
