Step 1: Developing Your Management Baseline

Before you do anything else in the Lab, we'll want you to go through our Developing Your Management Baseline minicourse. It's all about understanding your unique point of view and theory of change — two of the most important pieces of who you are as a leader – and we think it should take you 1-2 hours to complete:

From there, you'll engage with our content or our events in whatever way best serves you at the time. We drop new content each month – that'll be what you see below in the "NEW" box – as well as archiving past content and linking to upcoming events. Enjoy the Lab! 👩‍🔬

New This Month

🆕
New content: Tailoring Minicourse

This month, we're looking at how purpose-driven pros can combine all three of the Lenses of Leadership Thinking – critical, strategic, and creative – to build work processes and cultures that truly reflect them through a process called tailoring.

Tailoring is one of the "Tools and Techniques" underlying excellent project management via PMI, but we can borrow from the project management profession to apply it to all types of management.

Reminders

We won't be hosting a Manager's Lab Office Hours session in August (though we'll be back in the saddle in September!). If you run into any issues, reach out to us: hello@createboundlessimpact.com
🔜
Coming soon: Our September topic will continue along this month's theme of how these project management best practices intersect with building high performing teams!
