Lateral leadership

Lateral leadership

Managing successfully without hierarchical authority
Seminar objective

Constellations often arise in everyday life in which employees assume leadership responsibility for several colleagues without a formal supervisor function. Natural authority, respect and recognition help to master this task. Those who manage to motivate colleagues to take on responsibility, support them as team members and also deal with resistance, lead their team with motivation to achieve top performance.
