Delivery Method

Face-to-face

This is a Leadership Program, designed to be delivered over a period of 3-6 months

Program Overview

Due to skills shortages and internal practices, team members are often promoted into leadership roles primarily based on technical ability, and it often results in gaps in leadership capabilities becoming apparent only after the promotion.

Focusing on self-reflection, fostering a positive work culture, understanding different leadership styles, and learning how to effectively manage performance, this course is designed to equip leaders with the essential skills and tools needed to lead effectively in today’s rapidly changing environments. The emphasis on getting ‘buy-in’ from team members is particularly important, as it underscores the importance of collaboration and engagement in driving success.

Duration and Delivery

This course consists of four (4) modules, covering foundational skills of leaders

Four (4) non-consecutive full-day sessions (8 hours per day)

Generally held one day every 4-6 weeks.

Delivered face-to-face for up to 18 participants.
