Situational Leadership II
Developing Competence, Gaining Commitment, and Retaining Talent
Situational Leadership II (SLII) is the most comprehensive, up-to-date, and practical method of effectively managing and developing people, time, and resources in the world. SLII provides leaders with a model and the tools for creating open communication and developing self-reliance in those they manage. It is designed to increase the frequency and quality of conversations about performance and development. As a result, competence is developed, commitment is gained, and talented individuals are retained.
SLII is recognised as both a business language and a framework for employee development because it works across cultural, linguistic, and geographical barriers. The foundation lies in teaching leaders to diagnose the needs of an individual or a team and then use the appropriate leadership style to respond to the needs of the person and the situation.

Coaching to Support Learning: Working one-on-one with a professional business coach is the most effective way to achieve proficiency. The Ken Blanchard Companies offers one-to-one coaching to reinforce the principles and skills learned in Situational Leadership II workshops. Contact us to discuss how we can assist you in building your leadership capability.
Sustainability Resources: We are continually developing additional resource kits, designed for either Blanchard or client delivery, which assist in building specific competence in areas such as giving feedback, building trust, and more. Review our Sustainability Resources here.
