Duration: 1 Hour Credits: 1 PDU Category C – Free PDU
Hosted By: The Ken Blanchard Companies

Don’t let your blind spots catch you off guard. We all have blind spots when it comes to understanding and accepting when another’s world view is different from our own. When we find ourselves getting defensive, irritated, or even hostile, it is often because we have encountered a personality that we cannot relate to.

In this webinar, best-selling author and consultant Scott Blanchard (LinkedIn profile) and best-selling author and master certified coach Madeleine Homan-Blanchard (LinkedIn profile) will explore personality and temperament and how they impact leadership influence and effectiveness.

You’ll learn how a better understanding of yourself allows you to better understand others—both on the job and off. Topics to be explored include:

  • Understanding the four temperaments
  • Exploring your shadow temperament
  • The role of temperament in a work setting
  • How temperament can be used to create stronger work relationships

Appropriate for all levels within an organization, don’t miss this opportunity to look at how a better understanding of temperament can lessen interpersonal conflict at work and at home.

By learning a simple, usable framework, you can take your first steps toward a better understanding of yourself and others that can show you the patterns that distinguish and differentiate people.

Is it smart to put lace curtains on the windows of a house that has no foundation?

Can you really strive to succeed when you’re not comfortable in your own skin and don’t know who you are at your very core?

Many of us spend years trying to find out who we are and sadly, never really do.

The truth is, if YOU fail to define yourself, others will jump in and do it for you and may easily focus on the most basic common denominators like gender, race and/or your socioeconomic background.

When this happens, we end up buying into the labels other have bestowed upon us we may become prisoners of them.

The result is that many of us never realize our greatest potential.

In this insightful program, Stedman Graham discusses his own journey around identity and how he learned to take control of his life by breaking down the self-limiting barriers he had allowed others to erect.

You’ll learn about the nine-step success process including stepping into outer limits, building your dream team and committing to your vision.

You will also come to understand that the answer to who you are most certainly lies within you.

Note: While attending this program is FREE, reservations are required. If you to register (even if you are unable to attend live) you’ll receive replay information following the event.

Presenter: Stedman Graham is chairman and CEO of S. Graham and Associates, a Chicago-based management and marketing firm. As a businessman and educator, Graham lectures and conducts seminars in his proprietary Nine-Step Success Processâ„¢. He is also the author of 10 books, including New York Times bestsellers Identity: Your Passport to Success and You Can Make It Happen: A Nine Step Plan for Success. Active in philanthropy and community work, Graham is a board member of Corporate Voices, the National Board of Junior Achievement (JA), and the 7-Eleven Education Is Freedom Foundation.
