Distinctive Offerings

High-performing cultures are characterized by an ability to align (gain clarity on vision, strategy, and shared employee behaviors), execute (move in the agreed-upon direction with minimal friction), and renew (continuously improve at a pace that exceeds competitors) ̬three factors we also refer to as ‘organizational health.’

It is possible to meaningfully change no more than five aspects of an organization’s culture in a 12- to 18-month period and choosing those and concentrating on those could be the first steps towards a performance culture. Concentrating on a short list has the additional value of forcing everyone to focus on the changes most important to reaching the desired end state. Having said that culture change efforts run as stand-alone programs typically rarely succeed and hence finding ways to. And hence finding ways to fully integrate the culture change initiatives into the business initiatives is critical. This program through case studies and live projects helps participants work on various cultural elements they choose to address and integrate.

The impetus for diversity initiatives for organizations must come from awareness of business implications; addressing the needs of a diverse workforce, satisfying the demands of competitiveness, and fulfilling requirements of the company’s role in the community.

Organizations are willing to accept change related to diversity only if the potential benefits are clear and worthwhile. We help organizations work through various elements for working with diversity including –

• Training and education programs
• Organizational policies and systems that mandate fairness and equity for all employees
• Mentoring programs for minority employees
• Systematic career guidance and planning programs
• Outreach programs and initiatives for chosen areas of focus within diversity

Emotional space is a unique experiential program designed to address and provide the participant an opportunity to –

• Increase their understanding of group development and dynamics.
• Gain a better understanding of the underlying social processes at work within a group.
• Increase their skill in facilitating group effectiveness.
• Increase interpersonal skills.
• Experiment with changes in their behavior.
• Increase awareness of their own feelings in the moment; and offer them the opportunity to accept responsibility for their feelings.
• Increase their understanding of the impact of their behavior on others.
• Increase their sensitivity to others’ feelings.
• Increase their ability to give and receive feedback.
• Increase their ability to learn from their own and a group’s experience.
• Increase their ability to manage and utilize conflict.
• Powerfully own up and use their emotions.

The program helps women leaders –

• Work with self –
  • Challenge their assumptions, confront fears, and turn obstacles into opportunities through an experiential learning process.
• Work with others and system –
  • Tackle the issues of negotiation, team effectiveness, power and relationships, social networks, and influence.
  • Interpret the subtle messages of power, and recognize and react to the organizational impact of diverse management styles.
• Work with the environment –
  • Learn about and leverage social networks and techniques to influence individuals and groups.
  • Create a personal and professional network you can leverage throughout your career.
  • Learn from inspirational women leaders who come together to share their leadership experiences, their personal and professional stories and encourage one to reach your full leadership potential.
  • Using the three components of self-awareness, empowerment and activation, the program focuses on aiding participants to recognize their strengths, develop the wherewithal to achieve their leadership potential.

Arts-based learning is defined as the use of artistic expression—including poetry, drama, dance, film, literature, music, and all forms of visual art—as a catalyst for improving business performance. It can occur in a conventional program or workshop setting, or beyond the walls of the training room (for example, a concert hall, photography studio, or museum).Arts-based learning typically is used in two ways in the context of leadership development: parallels are drawn between the artistic process itself and leadership, and participants create art or engage with a work of art firsthand. Both can be useful depending on the objective of the initiative. For instance – one exercise called for participants drawing a picture of how it feels to be in a conflict. The resulting images—almost all of which are negative—serve as a springboard for dialogue around fear of conflict and the possibility for constructive resolution.The participants report that arts-based learning fostered positive changes in their beliefs about leadership, risk taking, ambiguity, collaboration, and self-image. There are several reasons for these results:

• The arts tap into our emotions in ways that defy rationality, often leading to a heightened sense of self-awareness and introspection.
• Artists and leaders have more in common than one might think, which allows for intriguing and fruitful associations to be made between the two disciplines.
• By altering our perceptions, art can peel away illusion and assumptions to reveal the truth at the heart of an issue or subject.
• Engaging in the creative process of making art can require the application of cognitive, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills that are essential for business success.
• Engaging in the creative process of making art can require the application of cognitive, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills that are essential for business success.
• Art can simplify the complex, which leads to previously unseen or unimagined solutions to intractable problems.

The Essence of Feminine Leadership

Power. Influence. Perseverance

From glass ceilings and work-life balance to “leaning in” and office politics, the issues for women leaders continue to stir conversation and controversy. While women are making it to the corner office, the practice still generates headlines. The focus of this unique women’s leadership program is to help women leaders act with power, effectively navigate the workplace and take the lead in driving new strategies and their execution. Do men and women differ in their leadership styles? Are they perceived differently even when they do the same thing? Research shows that the answer is a resounding “yes.” And the implications are significant for women in the workplace, which is exactly why this program for women leaders was created.

This research-driven, career-enhancing experience is designed to provide clarity on style, the way women negotiate and manage teams; it is designed to fundamentally help them challenge assumptions, confront anxiety, and turn obstacles into opportunities. As we facilitate the participants to explore their selves for insights as well as understand how they can leverage their personal and professional networks, we also provide them an opportunity to share experience with other dedicated and influential women leaders who will join as guest speakers.  The program brings in perspectives to understand the perceptions, behaviors, stereotypes, and backlash that women uniquely face and then transforms those empirical results into effective workable solutions.

More specifically the program deals with leadership, styles, negotiation, team effectiveness, power and authority relationships, balance, networks, and influence. These are critical, often complex and yet essential — to enhance power, navigate the workplace, and take the lead.

REȺEL LEADERSHIP™

Exploring Applied Behavior and Leadership through Films

REFLECTIVE | EXPERIENTIAL | ENGAGED | LEARNING

Concept by Dr Mukta Kamplikar

REAEL Leadership leverages the power of storytelling to provide a unique and effective learning experience . Leading here is not about a hierarchical position it is an attempt to explore and impact applied behavior for participants. By understanding leadership through the lens of cinema, participants gain valuable insights, develop thinking and feeling , expand in critical dimensions of personal leadership and are inspired to become better in their own areas of operation . This innovative pedagogy not only enhances engagement but bridges the gap between the world of art, science and management . It adds comprehensiveness to learning by getting important elements of the right and the left brain together. Since the course focuses on both cognitive- emotive and applied aspects of leadership, we believe this might be a wholesome and an incrementally innovative way of learning for the recipients.
