How Does the Leadership Skill Center Work With You?

When you work with us you can expect to see rapid, positive and sustainable changes in your capacity to mentor, manage and lead, even difficult team members.

You will quickly become aware of just how powerful the tools we teach you are. You will more easily influence and motivate not only those who report to you, but also those to whom you report. Your enhanced leadership skills will result in your team's improved performance and productivity.

Your confidence grows as you see consistent results when you apply what you learn.

You not only become more effective at what you do, but your productivity grows when you focus on the fundamentals that make all the difference to your success as a leader. Your new insight into how to handle the problems and challenges that come the way of every leader begins to pay dividends. You learn how to encourage your team members to embrace change, contribute willingly and participate more actively. Conflict is reduced and real results come with a lot less struggle and effort.

It's not that all the problems and challenges which are a part of leading and managing people magically disappear. They don't. But you now know the best way to tackle them. Instead of feeling drained and exhausted at the end of your day's work you are energized and satisfied knowing how much you have accomplished. Your enthusiasm is refreshed and everyone around you is revitalized and stimulated by your energy and motivation.

Our guiding beliefs and values: On purpose - In joy - For good

On purpose:

Contribution - Our purpose is to make a positive difference in the lives of our clients. We know you are busy with other important demands on your time and we respect the value of the trust you place in us when you choose to work with us.

Leadership - We are dedicated to building and maintaining our own leadership skills, experience and expertise and we practise what we teach by leading and mentoring others. We have served in numerous leadership and management roles over the years and continue to do so. We truly do understand both the challenges and the rewards of what you do.

In joy:

Enjoyment - We enjoy the work that we do and the people we work with. When we agree to work with you we work closely together to ensure we do what we can to help you achieve your potential. We are proud of the fact that many of our clients have also become good friends. Leadership can be a fulfilling and satisfying experience and life's too short not to enjoy what we do.

For good:

Simplicity - We invest significant effort in finding the essence that adds value. We are committed to interpreting and applying new ideas and technologies in a practical and meaningful way and for your maximum benefit.

Integrity - We believe, as Kerrie Mullins-Gunst says, "Integrity is bringing who you are to what you do". There is rarely one right way to achieve a desired outcome or to be a leader. Our programs encourage you to find your own individual best way of leading - a style that reflects who you are. And what we offer you is the best of who we are in all we do.

The Leadership Skill Center Approach

Our approach is based on sound adult learning principles and our proven four step process for quickly and effectively building practical leadership skills.

Adult Learning
We know adults learn best when:

• You are actively involved in your own learning
• You are challenged as well as guided
• Programs are ‘just-in-time’ and relate directly to your current needs
• Ample opportunity is provided for discussion and reflection
• Learning occurs in an informal, supportive atmosphere of mutual trust and respect.

Our Four Step Process
We know the most effective way to make the transition to effortless and effective leadership involves a four-step process:

1. Assess and understand your own style, strengths and weaknesses
2. Acquire the knowledge, skills, attitudes and behaviors which have consistently been proven effective
3. Work with an experienced mentor to challenge, guide and support you personally while you apply your new learning and ideas to your own real-life situations
4. Consolidate your new skills and experiences by sharing your insight with other managers facing similar situations in a different context.

Since KMG Consulting was established in 1993 we have used these principles to develop highly effective leadership and management programs that we have delivered to clients across Australia, New Zealand, England, Canada, the United States and in Japan.

Why It Works

Our programs are based on more than 30 years experience, research and study in how adults learn and what leaders want and need to learn most.

In late 2005 our success was recognized by the Telematics Foundation of the Victorian Government which awarded us a prestigious grant to realize our novel and unique approach to online leadership development in our Leadership Coaching Club using our FeLAN™ model and we are pleased to acknowledge their support for our programs.

When you are looking to undertake a leadership program these days there are plenty to choose from. But none of them offer the same depth of experience or insight, and proven value, as those found here.
