Sparkle Champions do a review of the four styles before focusing on how to strategically inspire, lead and create the ideal Sparkle working environment. Each DISC behaviour style – Dominant, Influencer, Steadiness and Conscientious – is explored with team members.

As a result of this session participants will have a range of communication resources to support them in connecting with their team members at a deeper level and be better placed to inspire and motivate best Sparkle performance.
Having this knowledge provides Champions with increased confidence when dealing with each style, a much greater sense of control when selecting the right style for certain duties and a level of comfort, day to day knowing that they are meeting the communication and behavioural needs of their team members.
CIGAR FEED BACK MODEL
Sparkle Champions appreciate that leaders are required to give feedback from time to time. The CIGAR Feedback Model offers a simple but powerful communication process that is aimed at creating respectful, positive, honest and open conversations primarily through the power of questions and two way conversation. Easy to use this process is in alignment with creating positive Sparkle experiences. Participants will learn how to use the model and experience the process during a practice session.

GROW COACHING MODEL
Used to coach elite athletes around the world the GROW Coaching Model is an excellent communication tool for Sparkle Champions to engage, inspire and support their team members in succeeding and realising their goals and achievements in the library. The premise of GROW is that all people know within themselves the best way to move forward, what is acceptable and what isn’t. By following the GROW process managers are able to conduct positive life changing conversations with prepared questions that encourage their colleagues to think about and consider the best options for themselves.

Using a collaborative approach to supporting team members in achieving their goals, Champions will find the GROW model is easy to use and a highly motivational way to conduct conversations.
