Leadership is a mindset. It’s a way of thinking – a way of viewing the world. The most capable leaders see opportunities that others miss to build culture, strengthen teams, develop employees, and motivate performance.
Leadership also requires a skillset. The most capable leaders have mastered techniques for developing people, instilling pride, setting expectations, holding others accountable, making decisions, and managing conflict.
ANYONE can be a leader, whether it’s at your job, in your community, or even within your family. This course will give you the tools to succeed at any level.
The Fox Cities Chamber has the unique opportunity to be the first in Wisconsin to offer a groundbreaking leadership program – “Leader Lab: Linking Organizational Culture and Leadership.” The program will be facilitated by the esteemed Amy Schanke, Director of Leadership Fox Cities, the Fox Cities’ premier leadership program since 1991.
The program consists of seven in-person classes, with self-study and reflection between class sessions. Program cost is $450.
“Many of us have learned leadership lessons from our life experiences without the benefit of formalized structure, practical application, or highly trained mentors. This leadership program provides wonderful resources, tools, and applications to strengthen, develop, and retain our leaders at businesses and organizations within Calumet County. The Leader Lab program will bolster our talent pipeline, develop stronger teams, challenge emerging leaders, and encourage and motivate people looking for personal growth and deeper opportunities. We are excited to partner with the Fox Cities Chamber to offer this important and crucial program within Calumet County.”
“I was skeptical at first, especially with the format being ‘watch this video and answer questions’, but the subject matter was genuinely interesting, informative and succinct enough that it didn't feel like a chore to watch. The labs were all very well run, and I think 90 minutes was the perfect amount of time...long enough that they could be substantive but short enough to not take up a ton of work time. I'm really glad I participated and would recommend the Leader Lab to anyone.”
