September 14, 8:30-Noon Cardinal Stritch University Kliebhan Conference Center, Presented by Cardinal Stritch Leadership Center & St. Francis Institute Milwaukee, a Capuchin ministry |
In their half day seminar, Fr. Keith Clark and Mike Panther, co-authors of “Leadership—The Art of Empowerment,” will share what they have learned firsthand about good leaders.
Keith Clark, OFM Cap, brings his extensive experience in leading religious communities and organizations and Mike Panther brings over 30 years of leadership experience in the for profit community leading large manufacturing operations. They will share leadership techniques as well as their practical application of that learning.
Among other things, this seminar will:
• Cover the distinction among manipulation, intimidation and leadership.
• Demonstrate how each action reflects the attitude of the leader.
• Discuss the distinction between leadership positions and leadership behaviors dispelling myths about who is or who can be a leader.
• Provide a tool for leaders to develop the skills of self-awareness, self-disclosure and hearing
• Discuss the importance for a leader to manage his/her inner world in order to connect, rather than collide, with colleagues.
• Show how empowerment of colleagues produces better results, better work climate and more personal satisfaction.
