If you are attending the annual conference, you will not want to miss the pre-conference workshop that will be held on Wednesday from 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm. This is an ICMA University Workshop session taught by Dave Limardi. FCCMA is able to offer this workshop at a much lower price than you would pay if you were to attend the ICMA conference. The cost to attend this session is $135 in addition to your conference registration.
Leaders today are immersed in moments of disruptive change. We have entered a “New Order of Things.” Leaders and the organizations they lead are constantly placed in difficult, awkward and conflict-laden situations. What are the leadership fundamentals that we need to work on to thrive in “The New Order of Things”? This session will explore in depth the following topics: 1) An array of “poison darts” that exist in today’s leadership environment that we must be aware of because they can easily derail our success; 2) “Interpersonal Leadership” as the antidote for the “poison darts” concentrating on the most important fundamentals for leading people during challenging times such as formal and informal authority, judgment, conflict, understanding emotions and the need for work/life balance. The session will be interactive including the use of case studies to amplify the leadership concepts explored.
ICMA practice areas: 2-Policy Facilitation, 6-Initiative, Risk Taking, Vision, Creativity and Innovation; 14- Advocacy and Interpersonal Communication, 17-Integrity; and 18-Personal Development.
