Women at Work – Travellers in a Mans World
What do women managers face in the new decade?
• Diverse employees – different ages, skills, and cultures
• Diverse skills bases – varying levels of expertise and knowledge
• Changing skills requirements and customer needs
• Flexible work schedules and locations – dual careers and increased commuting
• Information overload – rapid pace of technology change
• Agility in problem solving and building relationships
These issues apply to managers in all types of organisations ranging from small companies to large multi-nationals. It is always a challenge by a stakeholder who is in the minority in an organisation to rise to a management position but it certainly can be done.
The social significance of the changes in women's status – economically, socially and psychologically- is quite unprecedented in the history of women.
1. Are we ready for the 2010 workforce – a new world of work?
2. What are the challenges to our competency?
3. Explore the 7 step formula to encounter and manage these forms of resistance.
Today’s issue of equal employment opportunity may well be tomorrow’s issue of equal right to survival – survival as individuals, families, and organisations
How to Apply Empowerment in the New Workplace:
(Empowerment is not a given right…it is earned)
Empowerment is the process of enhancing the capacity of individuals or groups to make choices, and decisions, with the appropriate authority and responsibility to transform these decisions into desired outcomes.
This presentation will explore what empowerment is, and more important, what it is not?
Understanding and applying the three components of empowerment is the catalyst that unleashes the power for individuals to produce results.
How do we apply the ten top principles to involve employees, and the three R's of motivation?
The business model of the future knows that there are three kinds of leadership
* To conform
* To reform
* To transform
The three components of empowerment will provide the strategy, communication and leadership practices to create a climate of collaboration, and a spirit for innovation.
These are two critical success factors for every enterprise if they are to survive the
next three or four decades.
Successfully meeting the bewildering barrage of challenges in today's economic climate will require new methods, new skills, and new structures. The empowerment model will show the way.
"The irony is that employees already have power… through their knowledge and motivation. This presentation shows how to unleash this power."
