Fireproof Leadership (VoD)   

Pete Havel, author of The Arsonist in the Office: Fireproofing Your Life Against Toxic Coworkers, Bosses, Employees, and Cultures, teaches you the fundamentals of understanding, assessing, and then changing a workplace culture for the better. Agencies across the country are riddled with fuzzy core values, weak leadership, low expectations, and toxic behavior. In this course, you will learn how to “fireproof” your organization against “arsonist” behaviors that can burn down an organization. Havel will not only give you the understandings you need, but the practical steps to take to transform a culture.

Topics Include

  • Major toxic behaviors to watch for
  • Telltale signs of weak leadership
  • Case studies on the power or impotency of leadership communications

  • The power of two-way feedback
  • Communication and Trust—the core canaries in the coalmine for assessing your culture
  • Leadership in 2024—what it must look like in the future
