Unlocking Empowerment: Making and Taking It

Ask any manager and they’ll likely to agree that they’d really like their people to take more ownership and to be more proactive in problem solving, managing their own workloads, productivity and so on. Then ask any employee what they want from a manager, and you’ll hear that they want more autonomy, to be trusted with decisions and to be allowed to think for themselves. It seems like managers and staff want the same thing yet there’s a massive disconnect when it comes to making that happen.

Empowerment isn’t just a fancy slogan painted on your head office wall, or something that a corporate training course insists you should ‘do’. You simply can’t give empowerment, the other person must feel safe to take it; and for that to happen, you, as their manager, need to make the conditions right for that to happen

During this highly engaging and interactive 45-minute workshop Jane Hodgson will take you through some simple steps to making the right conditions for empowerment, giving you a greater success rate at getting your people to ‘take; it.

By attending this webinar you will:

• Understand what is meant by empowerment

• Recognise the reasons that it doesn’t work in a lot of cases

• Learn some techniques to increase levels of empowerment in your team / organisation

The event will be facilitated by Jane Hodgson, an exceptional trainer with 20+ years’ experience in learning and development. For the last 12 years Jane has specialised in leadership and team development and this has seen her work all over the world with some prestigious clients. Whether it’s delivering a course on how to have breakthrough conversations in India, managing high performing teams in Kenya or how to influence using nudge theory in Nottingham, Jane has helped organisations bring out the best in their people, consistently delivering results.
