Description

To be an effective leader, it’s important to have an understanding of different leadership styles, the characteristics of the different leadership styles and how to best utilize a leadership style to influence the actions of others and to effect desired changes.  Two common leadership styles are “Transactional Leadership” and “Transformative Leadership”.  Transactional Leadership (or otherwise known as management leadership) is focused on the short-term by offering rewards for certain behaviors rather than motivating others to achieve overall change. Transformational leadership, on the other hand,  is focused on inspiring others to a higher level of motivation and morality. Transformational leaders often use communication, charisma, enthusiasm and empathy to inspire and motivate others to look beyond their own self-interest to create positive changes for the group, with key emphasis on the values, ideals, morals and needs of others.  Our speaker, Gayle, will discuss how to transition from being an individual contributor or a manager to a Transformational Leader ad learn the tools of helping others to gain strong intrinsic motivation, resulting in building a team at work that is engaged, dedicated, and passionate.

Speaker

Gayle Johnson is the founder of EVOLVE Life Coaching. She helps companies and governmental organizations maximize employee effectiveness through emotional intelligence leadership training and coaching.  Gayle is a Seattle native. She graduated from Roosevelt High School, attended the legendary Spelman College in Atlanta, GA, and then transferred to the University of Washington, where she received a B.A. Degree in Political Science.

Gayle says of her experience: “I have enjoyed the role of political strategist, workshop facilitator, and transformational leader for over 20 years. My effective leadership style has been developed through coaching high-level leadership, mid-management, and frontline employees on the importance of emotional intelligence, and how applying it creates high-performing teams, helps retain good talent and ultimately increases revenue. To support my experience as a transformational thought leader, I pursued a Master of Transformational Leadership at Seattle University. This knowledge informs my understanding of the theory behind what it takes to be an impactful leader, team member, employee, and how to manage one’s emotions while working in diverse organizations and managing the new demographic of employees – Millennials. I love people and enjoy seeing them access their happiness and move their lives forward.”
