As individuals ascend the management ladder, many find that the soft skills of leadership constitute their hardest challenges. Furthermore, most have come to rely on a familiar set of behaviors and skills.

Based on two of the Graduate School of Business' most popular and long-standing courses, this program's unique T-Group (Training Group) methodology and 12:1 student-faculty ratio provide a highly personalized learning experience for each participant. In this highly interactive program, senior-level leaders learn how to engage in productive interpersonal exchanges, assess the impact of their own behaviors and leadership styles, and excel at creating more powerful, professional relationships in a variety of contexts.

Managing Teams for Innovation and Success
http://www.gsb.stanford.edu/exed/mtis/index.html
Managing or participating in a team-based work environment can be either exhilarating or exasperating. Given the potential benefits and pitfalls of using teams, when should you use them, how do you choose team members who will accomplish a goal in the most effective manner, and how do you manage them to deliver successful results?
This program enables you to manage team dynamics in a manner that establishes a productive work environment, delivers high performance, and fosters creative ideas.
Managing Teams for Innovation and Success approaches team building at the strategic level. Participants evaluate not only the structure and management of high performance teams but also whether it is appropriate to use teams or individuals to most effectively accomplish a given goal. Participants also explore team dynamics from the perspectives of both team leaders and team members to build a deeper understanding of the implications of management decisions.
