Program Description:

The 2006 Leadership & Team-Building Conference offers cutting-edge training in a high-energy environment unlike any training event you’ve ever attended. It’s your opportunity to get innovative ideas and invaluable insights. Plus, it’s your chance to gather with other leaders in your area for one remarkable day of synergy and creative exploration that’ll open up a host of new solutions for you.

How do managers and supervisors get to the top? It starts here!
How do today’s managers perform at their peak while facing ever-greater management challenges? What are they doing to prepare for the future and guide their people into a new era of diversity, unparalleled change, and corporate commerce? The 2006 Leadership & Team-Building Conference is your chance to find out!

Get the scoop on the latest leadership issues and trends
Get ready to learn all about the latest team-building tools and techniques and find out which leadership strategies others in your shoes find most effective.
Don’t confuse this conference with one of those workshops that dwells on supervision basics. Instead, it’s packed with timely advice on dealing with the real-world leadership issues you face today, such as:

  • How to manage employees who don’t share the same work ethic, initiative, and commitment as their predecessors.
  • What’s the real deal on the “talent shortage” that’s predicted, and what will it mean for you?
  • What you should be doing to nurture the talents of your high-potential employees.
  • How to develop your leadership strengths to optimize your effectiveness.

Rub elbows with some of the most influential leaders in your area
Rockhurst Leadership Conferences are highly regarded for the quality and timeliness of their content. That’s why our conferences repeatedly draw some of the most successful leaders in your area … from organizations large and small alike. When you attend, you’ll get the opportunity to network with these thought-leaders — professionals you might never have a chance to meet otherwise who could become valued contacts in the future.

Gain invaluable strategies for motivating your team
One of the biggest challenges most leaders face is keeping their teams motivated and productive. Answer honestly: Do some of your team members lack enthusiasm, energy, and desire? Are their jobs riddled with stressors that hinder enthusiasm? Most leaders need help in this area, which is why this conference covers innovative techniques for getting employees revved up, even when unavoidable workplace realities are working against you.

Master keys to being a more influential and persuasive leader
If you can’t persuade others to “see it your way,” your effectiveness as a team leader goes down the drain. This conference delivers the critical communication “know how” you need to immediately improve your ability to influence others. You’ll learn a concise, step-by-step method of persuasion as well as how to clear your path of the most common obstacles to getting your point across.

Discover answers to the most critical issues YOU face – by designing your own customized conference agenda
Our tracked format means you can select those sessions that spark your interest and suit your needs. Choose cutting- edge sessions from either our Leadership Excellence or Team-Building Essentials tracks.

In all, you create your conference by selecting from eight power-packed sessions, plus you’ll get access to our exciting opening and closing sessions that will tie together, ensuring you find answers to your most pressing leadership issues.

Be awed by our incredibly powerful speakers – and their incredible ideas!
This extraordinary event features an unprecedented chance for you to learn from nationally respected presenters who we’ve hand-picked for their knowledge and expertise. Each exciting session is brimming with new strategies, cutting-edge techniques, and up-to-the-minute ideas that are working right now for managers in leading organizations nationwide.

Count on a “transformational” day away from your routine!
Think for a minute how refreshing it will be to put your job responsibilities aside for a day and have the uninterrupted time to focus on how your team is functioning now, where you want to lead your people tomorrow – and exactly what it’s going to take to get there.

You’ll leave this conference with a renewed sense of commitment to leading your team, armed with new tools and solutions you’ll use right away to build a more cohesive, more productive team.

There’s never been a better opportunity to take your leadership skills to the next level!
How often do you get the chance to upgrade your skills to this extent in just one day? Quite possibly NEVER! So clear your calendar, hold all calls, and take the time right now to reserve your seat at this extraordinary event. It’ll be one of the brightest, most visionary management decisions you’ll make all year!
