W390: LEADERSHIP & LEARNING SERIES: Leadership Lessons from Martial Arts

February 7, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm EST

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

The martial arts teach discipline, respect and technique. What can they teach us about leadership? Quite a lot.

In this session, Joanna Pineda, CEO & Chief Troublemaker of Matrix Group International, will  share five leadership lessons that she’s learned from studying two martial arts (TaeKwonDo and HapKiDo): When it’s important to trade your black belt for a white belt. How to take a punch. How to lead and how to follow. Always define the next level of achievement (the next belt). Sometimes, you just have to “do something.”

 

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

  • Learn why it’s useful to think of your staff as students with different degrees of skill levels (belts).
  • Learn how to have a conversation with a staff member who needs to switch jobs or seriously upgrade their skills (change to a new martial art).
  • Learn how to teach your staff that they can be and should be leaders and followers at the same time.
