The seminar Authentic Leadership provides participants with the necessary skills and knowledge to assume an authentic leadership role. Learn the three cornerstones of authenticity (self-awareness, transparency and integrity) and how to confidently use these qualities to enhance their leadership skills.

• Learn the benefits and challenges of authentic leadership and how to use these qualities to build trust and credibility in your team.
• As part of the leadership training, you will deepen your understanding of yourself - your motivations, values and goals. You will learn how to use this self-knowledge to better meet the needs of your team and increase your self-competence.
• In the seminar, you will also learn how to promote creative and mindful practices in the workplace to increase productivity.
• Learn how to use information and experiences to influence your own behaviours, attitudes and beliefs.
• In addition, in the Authentic Leadership seminar, you will explore the topic in relation to your leadership work to deepen your understanding and application of the concepts.

The seminar concept Authentic Leadership draws on various teaching methods and includes numerous interactive and experiential exercises in addition to teaching the theoretical basics of the topic. These are intended to help the participants to better recognise their own weaknesses and potentials and to work on them. The personal development of the participants is always in the foreground of the training. The participants should leave the seminar with new knowledge, but also with new perspectives and approaches that they can use in their everyday leadership. Of course, the participants receive comprehensive seminar materials that they can use as a reference in their daily work.

The seminar Authentic Leadership is useful for both practising leaders and HR developers who want to deepen their understanding of the topic of authentic leadership. The tools taught help supervisors to act more authentically and to develop their own leadership style. In addition, the seminar is also suitable for anyone who wants to learn more about themselves and their behaviour in order to better understand the topic of authentic leadership.

Of course, we also offer the seminar Authentic Leadership as an in-house training in your company. We would be happy to make you a tailor-made offer that meets your needs in terms of content focus, the given time frame and additional wishes.

Authentic leaders have a positive impact on their employees, their teams and their organisations. They create an environment where people can feel comfortable with themselves and each other. As a result, they are more likely to engage in meaningful work and be more productive. Furthermore, authentic decision-makers are able to create a climate of trust and credibility.

1. Leaders who are authentic have a high degree of self-competence. They act in a goal-oriented manner and have the ability to handle difficult situations with ease.
2. They also have a strong sense of acceptance, which enables them to build trust and credibility within the team.
3. They are also able to communicate openly and honestly and are not afraid to confront problems, which gives them a sense of security.

There is no blanket answer to this question, because the limits of an authentic leadership style vary depending on the habits, basic assumptions and core beliefs of the individual personality. However, there are some general areas where they may reach their limits:

• Inconsistencies between their words and actions.
• Self-confidence and their self-competencies
• Self-perception and image of others
• Attitude and attitude towards others

It is important to remember that these are potential boundaries and not absolute boundaries. With the right attitude and approach, authentic leaders can overcome even the greatest challenges.
