Overview:
Investing in employee training and development helps organizations achieve their goals, builds a culture of inclusion, and provides managers with tools to nurture talent. But what happens after the training? Even the best business and employee development plans can be waylaid when unexpected obstacles arise.
Recognizing and dealing with barriers to success is a vital skill for the self-aware leader. In the broader business context the barriers may be obvious-economic conditions, lack of resources, time constraints, or the competitive landscape.
Why should you attend:
There are also more insidious factors that can interfere with your employees-or your own-ability to thrive. More often than not we know exactly what we need to do to reach our goals, but we just aren't able to do it. This could be due to gaps in our skill set or a self-sabotaging mindset.
The inability to recognize and deal with barriers to success has multiple consequences. It can delay the growth of the company, inhibit an individual's potential, and lead to feelings of doubt, uncertainty, guilt and shame.
Fortunately, few barriers are insurmountable if you step back, assess and formulate an approach. Conscious leaders do this constantly, using specific, learnable skills to keep themselves and their companies on track.
