In a "well-disciplined" organization, systems work properly and people do what they're supposed to do including follow the rules. There would be little need for punitive discipline. This seminar explains a varity of enhanced leadership initiatives, including focused policy and strengthened systems, to achieve "disciplinary" goals. It includes things that every leader needs to know about the "Internal Affairs" function and its involved proccesses.
This is macro-leadership training about the shaping of organizational culture through enhanced methos of human development and proper use of strengthened systems.
Leadership styles can and will vary from leader to leader but adherence to certain key principles cannot. Leaders must put employees on clear notice of orginization standards. Those standards must then be consistently enforced. Disciplinary sanctions must be consistet and proportionate. In certain key respects, supervision cannot vary from supervisor to supervisor; overarching consistency must be maintained from workgroup to workgroup. This requires a systemic approach to what historically was left to individual supervisory and managerial discretions. Practical application of all this is demonstrated. The program shows the need for organizational solutions to organizational problems. It reminds senior leadership - the "big picture" people - of the vital need still to mind the store and keep close watch on the "little" things. If you take care of problems while they're small, you don't get a lot of big problems. Program theme: Finding True North.
