A CT Transportation Leadership Program REQUIRED Workshop - Cohort #9

Course Description:

For a team to be successful, it is essential that members communicate clearly and understand each other. Knowing our own DiSC style and understanding team members’ needs and preferences will positively impact morale, productivity and overall cohesiveness.  In this session, we will review our own styles and learn how to “read” our team members to assess their preferences and needs. We will also discuss strategies and tools for using this information to more clearly communicate with them and build a strong team.

Learning Objectives:

Upon completion of this class participants will be able to:

  • Recognize different DiSC styles and adapt your style accordingly.
  • Identify appropriate ways to direct and motivate staff and delegate tasks using DiSC tools.
  • Use DiSC Catalyst as a tool for navigating conversations with people of different styles.

Instructor:

Celeste Barros is an educator, facilitator, and coach whose work focuses on customized interactive learning programs designed to enhance and build management and leadership skills. Celeste has an active consultation business and also serves as the architect and lead instructor for the leadership and management development program for the staff at the University of Connecticut.
