U.S. Office of Personnel Management - Ensuring the Federal Government has an effective civilian workforce

Leading change and producing results in the Federal Government can often be a challenge, requiring managers to navigate the fine line between necessary controls and bureaucratic paralysis. This is exactly what Captain Mike Abrashoff experienced when he took command of the USS Benfold. Using GrassRoots Leadership, a principle that empowers every individual to share the responsibility for achieving excellence, he produced outstanding results. Mike would tell his people, “It’s your ship,” to encourage them to act in the best interest of the organization and support their best efforts.

The strategies and tools behind the Benfold’s success are brought to life in this seminar.  Featured instructors have decades of experience teaching enlightened leadership principles and will provide insightful debriefings of your pre-seminar assessment. This transformational experience serves equally well as a foundational seminar for those being groomed for leadership or as a refresher seminar for upper-level managers.
