Leadership Institute Manual
Does your workplace
need revived leadership?
If so, YOU may be the answer…
Whether
you are enrolled in one of my Leadership Institutes or have simply
decided to revolutionize the work environment on your own, I’ve
created this manual for you. Built from 25 years of experience with
companies of all styles and sizes, this manual is a guidebook for workplace
success - an extremely productive tool for the cultivation and development
of thoughtful, competent, motivated leaders and team enhancers.
I invite
you to consider the Leadership Institute Manual – its
distinctive
benefits, proven modules
and assessments, and its impact
on companies. There are many leadership guides out there.
This is considered, quite simply, to be one of the most effective
in the business. Given these features, your
investment in this foundational resource
is quite modest – less than a
half-day individual professional development session – yet
it can be used to influence any number of team members under your
immediate supervision or company-wide!
Benefits:
-
Turn-Key Efficiency – You have everything you need to efficiently
implement one of the most effective leadership programs in the country.
I’ve given you the tools, timetable, assessments, exercises
and tips to immediately begin to build leadership and winning teams
within your organization.
-
Greater Influence & Respect in the Workplace – You’ll
cultivate your own key leadership skills, determine how to best
and most positively exercise your power, and generate employee loyalty
and productivity.
-
Understand Your Working Style – Learn about your capacity
to provide guidance, direction, vision and how to improve upon
those skills to maximize your leadership role within the group and
your company. Better understand the way/s your team, and the individuals
in your group, need to speak and be heard.
-
Maximize Team Strength – Help each member of your team
discover his/her personalized vision for success. This manual insures
and validates the relevance of each person’s unique motivational
style, enabling them to create an action plan for positive change
in both their work and personal lives. You’ll find structured,
coordinated ways to change your professional approach to team building,
and also mix and match different exercises to fit the varying leadership
needs of your group or company.
-
Achieve Better Group Outcomes – Learn a systematic methodology
for helping achieve your most desired personal, professional and
team outcomes – through
these pages, you will tailor a customized approach to change,
choose the most relevant exercises, set realistic goals and achieve
tangible results. These are key features to maintaining your motivation,
and that of your team, as you navigate immediate and long-term projects.
-

established an effective team, insure their ongoing motivation by utilizing
the many exercises and programs offered in this manual. I also provide
feedback schedules and modules designed to encourage steady progress
toward individual and group goals.
-
Follow Quality-Driven Program
- Your Leadership Institute Manual is a blend of curriculum,
theory and experience. I have taken an experiential approach to
leadership - offering pragmatic and practical tools, grounded

Impact on Companies
“If you want to improve the skills of your organization's leaders, then this manual is a must have. At Storage USA, our employee surveys told us that our leaders needed to improve in their communication skills: listening, giving direction, coaching; and they needed to improve the way and frequency by which they recognized and rewarded their teams. Using the techniques taught in the Leadership manual, we improved our survey scores year over year in these areas.
Many of our leaders supervise dispersed workforces. It is vitally important that, anytime they get their teams together, this time is used productively and wisely. The facilitation skills taught in Susan Hastings' manual were just what our leaders needed to put them on the path to successful and impactful meetings. These are proven methods that work! I highly recommend Susan Hastings' methods and materials to anyone who wants to make an impact on the effectiveness of their organization's leadership.”

FRA Testimonial
"As the Training Officer for the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), I was constantly searching for good leadership and team-building programs. When Susan (my business coach) told me about her Leadership Institute, I could hardly wait to bring it to the FRA. We challenged Susan to deliver a Leadership TEAM Institute (LTI), using the Leadership Institute (LI) as the foundation. Susan modified the LI materials and delivered the LTI to a headquarters division and a field region.
In both cases the results were (and still are) incredible. I watched barriers that had been in place for decades literally melt away. People saw one another in a different way; talked in a way they had never talked before, actually hearing (and sometimes respecting) one another for the first time.
Today, several years later, I still see them referring to the LTI manual and sharing it with others. I frequently refer to the manual to find ideas on ways to handle situations. Always, I find something there that is helpful; something that directly applies to the situation at hand.
When I talk with people about the LTI, I tell them that the difference in Susan's program and others is that the LTI deals with relationships as well as skills and the manual provide reference materials that are timeless. It has been my experience that when relationships are working, leadership skills are maximized. And when outstanding resource materials like the LTI Manual accompany the program, the impact is even more significant.
The return-on-investment for this program is truly more long-lasting than any program I've seen in my 37 years of working in the human resources field. The LTI is an amazing program that changes lives and makes a difference in organizations that will last for years!"
