Follow this 3-week course,
- You will gain a better understanding of the basis on which you follow leaders :
. How you spontaneously perceive leaders
. What you expect from them
. How you trust them (or not)
. How you behave according to your representations of the leader .
- But also, and somewhat surprisingly, you'll realize that the way you are a follower also has an impact on the way you are a leader! And why is that? Because of an omnipresent ingredient in any relationship: the way you represent yourself and the other person.
- The theory of internal models of authority will give you a 360-degree view of what's going on inside you, whether you're a leader or a follower, and which has a major impact on the quality and effectiveness of the relationship.
We wish you a pleasant journey to the heart of yourself!
