All kinds of organizational expectations (quarterly goals, job descriptions, team mission statements, etc.) will evolve based on company context, scale over time, leadership changes, you name it.

In this 2-hour online workshop, we will talk about how to balance being empowering and being directive as a leader, and how to know when to switch up your approach.

We’ll also help you identify your default approach, so that you can see when it’s most useful, and when you might need to adapt it based on what your team or company needs, what the challenge is, how much urgency there is.

Why attend?

The class size for this workshop is capped at 12 people. This will be an incredibly small group (unlike the typical 40 attendees at an in-person Wherewithall workshop!).

This will be the best opportunity to connect with Lara outside of her coaching practice, and you'll walk away with:

• frameworks and examples of different ways to set expectations, based on what your team and company needs
• techniques for giving strong direction in a healthy way
• a deeper understanding of your default leadership style, so you can know when to adapt it
• extra resources for honing these skills after the workshop
• new connections with folks at other companies who are wrestling with the same challenges
