HOW TO TALK ABOUT THE BUSINESS
Management Workshop to Lead Confident Brand Representatives + Team Awareness Session or Tailored Training to Talk About your Business
The management workshop introduces leaders and managers to NWC’s 6 Intersections between your company’s brand and the ways your people personally represent themselves – their ‘personal brands’. You will look at the possible ‘gaps’ to see where your company brand is communicated positively or negatively through your people, and explore ways this might be assessed and addressed within your organisation.
The Team Awareness Session provides a broad introduction to how we as individuals build or break down trust for ourselves and the organisation we represent.
Tailored Trainings provide your teams with the tools to represent and ‘sell’ your business with confidence, whether that’s to prospective clients, future employees, internal stakeholders or online and public audiences.
Is your Mission-Critical Team Being Seen? Team Identity Build-Out
Unify your team with a shared purpose and approach; build team members’ professional confidence in delivering and communicating value; amplify their reputation with internal and external stakeholders.
Book this workshop for a team with a common goal, in order to develop a clear and confident team identity aligned to the organisation’s vision and values, start to communicate it more powerfully and increase staff’s sense of purpose, motivation and pride in the organisation.
Build your Leadership or Board Director Brand
Signature Program or Development Workshop for Leaders
Gather your board, or your current and emerging leaders, to work together to build their individual leadership brands and in the process, establish aligned values on ‘what it means to be a leader here’. Create clarity on what it means to up-level to a ‘leadership brand’ and why organisations doing this have an edge on brand visibility and trust. Create role models who demonstrate to all staff what a leader looks like at your organisation.
VISIBLE, CONNECTED & TOP OF MIND:
Online/Offline Networking for professional advisors
You may understand the purpose of attending networking events but have found them to be tiresome, scary or a waste of your efforts. You haven’t worked out how to choose and use networking opportunities or to leverage LinkedIn to suit your personality, purposes and schedule.
Being strategic with online and in-person networking means creating a clear plan for how you will use activities to suit you, your trusted brand, and your goals. It’s about consistency in building REAL relationships and staying on people’s radar – it’s not about all-out self-promotion, attending the opening of an envelope, or having coffee with everyone you meet!
This workshop takes you through a realistic but powerful plan for online and offline networking and BD activity that suits your role… so you can stay visible, connected and top of mind.
Personal Branding Basics & Powerful Communication for early career professionals
This practical workshop introduces graduate-level/early-stage career participants to their personal brand, the psychology of making a good impression and how to use confident communication techniques in real workplace situations. The workshop features visual examples, written and active exercises and discussion designed to build participants’ professional confidence. Leadership/management is consulted to inform your workshop’s focus points and feedback given on participant concerns, strengths and areas to work on, following the workshop.
Tailored programs
While all our our workshops are delivered with your particular audience in mind, most of our clients ask us to design a workshop or series of workshops especially for them.
To best support your business and learning objectives, we can create a program combining leadership strategy, team development workshops and 1-1 coaching. We work with your time and budget allowances to create the best outcome for you.
We include a strong feedback, assessment and KPI tracking component to ensure learning is integrated towards achieving individual, team and company goals.
