For Teams
Workshops and offsites for leadership teams, HR and chiefs of staff who work with a dominant, high-control leader.
Read the style, speak up, hold your ground.
Who this is for?
-
Leadership teams that report to a dominant, high-control leader
-
HR and people leaders who see the cost and can't get the leader to ask for help
-
Chiefs of staff who sit between the leader and everyone else
You may not be able to change whom you report to.
You can change how you work with them.
What we work on
-
Read the leader's style.
Using DiSC, the team learns what drives this leader, what they need to hear, and what sets them off.
-
Understand where the resistance comes from.
Control is usually fear in armor. Once the team sees what the leader is protecting, the pushback stops feeling personal.
-
Influence without triggering a fight.
How to bring bad news, disagree, and propose a different path in a way the leader can actually hear.
-
Hold your ground.
Calm, direct questions that keep the conversation on the work, not on who wins.
