People Leaders High-Performing Team Assessment Tool
1
The average new leader makes 140 decisions per day… that's why having a decision-making process to solve problems is critical for your performance and wellbeing
2
New leaders report they feel stressed, overworked and ill-equipped to handle the pressures of managing people and getting their own work done
3
Emerging leaders report they feel pressure to perform immediately while not having sufficient support to take on new people leadership skills
4
Most leaders report they do not have the time to do the forward planning and management tasks their new role requires
5
Leaders who have taken some form of leadership training early on in their career report this has had a measurable impact on their performance and the performance of their team
6
Leaders, and organisations who invest in the professional development of their emerging leaders are setting both the leader and the organisation up for future success
7
Coaching in organisation and leadership settings is an invaluable tool for developing people across a wide range of needs. The benefits of coaching are many;
8
Anecdotal evidence suggests that leaders who participate in peer networking and support opportunities are more resilient and better equipped to lead effectively on a long-term basis
I engaged People Leaders to coach and develop two of my direct reports who needed practical strategies for managing people, stakeholders, and multiple projects. From the beginning, my direct reports were led through a clear process which started with developing their levels of self-awareness and understanding the impact they were having on others.
This then formed the basis upon which specific goals were formed in partnership with me and the business needs.
As a result of this program; both my direct reports have a clear direction and process moving forward, are more competent in stakeholder management and have a substantial tool kit and resources from which to draw upon now and in the future.
The investment was well worth it, that is why I will continue to engage People Leaders when I have new and emerging leaders that need targeted leadership development.
Public Transport Victoria has been working with Michelle Terkelsen from people leaders for over 6 years in a number of capacities
Michelle has been the preferred team coach for the Deputy Chief executive officers leadership team. As a Myers Briggs expert, Michelle has run several dozen successful sessions with many of our teams. The objectives of these sessions included a deeper awareness of self, understanding the impact one’s behaviour has in a leadership capacity and enhancing communication within and between teams.
An often-requested facilitator, Michelle has ‘worked her magic’ running several of our partnership contract sessions
As the HR business partner – I have experienced first hand the impact Michelle has had on many individuals and teams in the business. Her ability to develop rapport and connection is a key strength, which allows the participant to openly share issues and concerns and move into solution mode at a quicker pace.
Her ability to support and challenge people to think differently and take action on new insights and learnings is another reason why she is sought after facilitator /coach.
I would be happy to recommend People Leaders to any organisation who is looking for high quality and experienced facilitator and coach.
You guys are awesome and have been instrumental in developing our new leaders an Melbourne Water. Keep it up!
Prior to working with Jan, I had communication difficulties and approached the workplace with a personal mentality, rather than a business minded mentality. Within moments of our coaching session, I knew the two were very different!
Since working with Jan, I have been able to express myself better, acknowledge staff personality profiles, and better understand the value of my team having a leader.
I was able to put the information I learnt into practice immediately and I felt I had great support from Jan and her guidance.
Additionally Jan made me and my business partner feel extremely comfortable, valid and heard.
Thank you Jan – it was a wonderful experience that inspired me and will carry forward in my professional career.
