LEADERSHIP TRAINING FOR YOUR EMPLOYEES
BY TAYLOR BROWN , LEAD ACCOUNTABILITY COACH
THE # 1 challenge we hear from business leaders today is , “ How do I get my team learning and growing faster ?”
When a business starts to grow and scale , your focus as a leader is often on business development , sales opportunities , and revenue channels , leading to a gap between how quickly you and the business are advancing versus how quickly your team is advancing . When leaders fail to invest in the learning and development of their people , they create tension between where they want the business to go and how fast it can realistically get there .
We see so many training and growth spaces for leaders , but as you move closer to the front lines , it becomes clear that those not in high-level leadership roles do not have the same access to professional development opportunities . It ’ s not uncommon to see company leaders attend conferences to meet with other leaders in their industry or take part in a mastermind group where they can problem solve and collaborate on a regular basis . However , we rarely see that type of investment and development emphasis at other levels of the business .
TO TRAIN FUTURE LEADERS AND ENSURE THE STEADY GROWTH OF YOUR ORGANIZATION , IT ’ S CRITICAL THAT TEAM LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES ARE PRIORITIZED AT THE SAME LEVEL AS THE C-SUITE .
A business is only as good as each of its employees . Are yours getting the support they need to succeed ? Have they been taught how many different ways they can contribute to the business ? Do they have mentor relationships they can lean on ? Are they involved in a community of likeminded learners ?
It is these questions that inspired the inception of Petra Forum Groups .
If you have ever wished for a supportive and confidential platform where your employees can collaboratively address challenges in their roles , Petra Forum Groups are a transformative resource that will redefine your company ’ s progress and success .
With different verticals and groups for various business functions , Petra Forum Groups provide support and community to Human Resource professionals , finance experts , marketing managers , and everyone in-between . This year alone , four new groups were also made available : sales leaders , administrative assistants , emerging leaders , and technology leaders .
Each month , Petra Forum Groups meet for 90 minutes to discuss career highs and lows , tackle challenges group members are having in their roles , focus on leadership development , and collaborate with other professionals in similar positions . In an intimate group setting of only 8 – 12 individuals , Petra Forum Groups create space for all participants to improve in specific areas that align with their career goals and the objectives of their organization . Special guest speakers and interactive Petra moderators ensure the meetings are effective , efficient , and , of course , a value add .
“ Learning is good . Learning from others is even better ! Petra Forum Groups put you ‘ in the room ’ for shared insights and experiences to rock your world forward !” – Arnie Malham , BetterBookClub . com .
