Positive Leadership

Leading to sustainable top performance with the PERMA lead principle

This training is held in German.
Motivation and performance increase significantly in companies that practice positive leadership. This has been tried, tested and scientifically proven many times over. Our training shows you how to adapt this successful leadership style and how to implement and use it successfully. If you want to lead teams to peak performance, you need to know your own strengths and goals. The PERMA Lead Principle helps you to compare your self-perception with reality. The comparison has three perspectives: Yourself as a leader, your team and the organization. Building on strengths, cultivating positive emotions, promoting togetherness and conveying a sense of purpose and thus more performance, creativity and enjoyment at work - these are the goals that you can achieve with the help of positive leadership.
