Start Strong in Your First 100 Days of Leadership

No matter where you’re at in your leadership journey, the first 100 days in a new role present distinct challenges and opportunities. It’s when you build relationships, establish a solid foundation, and set the tone for what your team can expect from you. These expectations can powerfully influence your future as a leader, which is why it’s important to craft a plan for how you want to be in your role.

In this three-part webinar series, you’ll create your very own action plan for your first 100 days with a new team. This will empower you to create a culture of productivity, engagement, and support, which will keep you moving toward positive outcomes for you and your team.

What You'll Learn

Strengthen your professional toolkit with strategies you can apply right away. The objectives below outline the core competencies you'll build through this training.

Build Credibility Quickly

Learn how new leaders earn trust – including the specific behaviours and choices that establish credibility in the first few weeks before people have fully decided what kind of leader you are.

Set Clear Expectations Early

Develop approaches for communicating what you value, how you'll work together, and what success looks like – before ambiguity creates problems.

Connect Genuinely with Your Team

Build practical strategies for learning who your team members are, what motivates them, and what they need from you – so your leadership starts with real relationships, not assumptions.

Focus on the Right Priorities

Learn how to identify the two or three things that matter most in your first 100 days – and resist the pull to prove yourself by doing everything at once.

Create Early Wins That Build Momentum

Develop strategies for identifying and achieving early wins that are meaningful to your team and stakeholders – building confidence on both sides.

Set Yourself Up for Long-Term Success

Build a longer-term leadership plan that extends beyond the first 100 days – including how to continue developing trust, delivering results, and growing in the role.
