Business Leaders: It’s Critical to Continue to Hone Key Skills

Do you have leadership goals, despite your experience? Do you want to continue to develop as a more effective leader as you grow your career and build your business? There are now three new ways to do so, all in one exciting program.

It’s critical in today’s evolving economy to revisit the core traits that effective leaders must demonstrate, while you enhance your business skills to scale your enterprise, or develop your leadership skills to advance your career and Knowledge Bureau is excited to help you get involved: 

Executive Business Builder Network. First, we invite you to join the Executive Business Builder Network to participate in the ongoing conversation with peers and share insights and stories with executive coach Joanne Sigurdson, author and instructor of the course Business Leadership, Culture, and Continuity. You will be asked to consider five traits of effective leaders in this week’s group discussion, including these three:

  1. Authenticity – Your heart and head work in tandem, but how does this translate into exemplary leadership skills?
  2. Vulnerability – This is about how your employees connect with you, and how they understand your strengths, weaknesses and challenges. Why is that important?
  3. Patience and tenacity – What is it about you that makes you constantly strive to push forward? How does that affect your interactions with others?

Evaluate your current leadership skills against the five traits outlined by Joanne, to determine where you can improve to be a better leader and head a successful company that meshes with today’s corporate culture standards, and the challenging economic climate.

Executive Business Builder Program. Next, improve your business skills by studying online in the comfort of your home or office. Enroll now in the new Executive Business Builder Program.

Executive Business Builder Retreat. The third, and most exciting opportunity is a relaxing, invigorating and inspirational peer-to-peer experience: The Business Builder Retreat. Knowledge Bureau’s first annual Business Builder Retreat is taking place in Quebec City November 10-11, 2018. Be sure to mark your calendar and take your professional development to a new level!
