In close collaboration with Kellen Europe’s HR department and leadership team, we developed an interactive leadership programme. Over a period of 5 months, 15 participants went on a journey of self-discovery, finding new ways to apply their unique strengths and deliver value to both their clients and team members. By using the Gallup CliftonStrengths assessment, the participants were able to uncover their talents and strengths, and connect these to each of the five training modules.
The modules provided practical tools related to topics such as:
- personal productivity;
- team management;
- creativity;
- pitching;
- client communication; and
- stress management.
During the programme, the examples and exercises were tailored so they could be applied directly to real-life situations and would encourage concrete behavioural changes. To increase the impact of the training, we used repetition and practice, including group coaching sessions throughout the journey to answer questions, regular recaps of key learnings, and sharing of success stories and challenges when applying the new techniques.
