Leadership Workshop Series Overview

The “WIP Leadership Workshop Series” offers a range of specialized programs designed to tackle a single significant business opportunity or challenge.  Each workshop is a turnkey program designed to drive maximum value for the client, without having to adopt new workflows or processes. All workshops use the OAD assessment as the starting point. The team leader and all participants take the assessment.  Each participant will have an individual and group review of their results.

The workshops follow a consistent approach consisting of these parts:

Foundational Work Phase

Translate each participants traits into communication styles, preferences, and blind spots. 

Business Challenge/Opportunity Phase

Apply the lessons learned to address the defined business issue or challenge.

John Lane’s DBA JTL Leadership Consulting teaches how to be a successful business owner through leadership development workshops and training. These services, available globally, are tailored for sales, IT, and HR teams to help them achieve excellence in their leadership roles.
