Leadership Skills

Target Audience:

Managers and team leaders.

Duration:

1 day.

Logistics:

The ideal number of participants for this training is 9 to 12.

Objective:

Develop current managers into becoming creative and inspiring leaders within the organisation, the kind other people look up to. Delegates should come out of the course confirmed in their ability to be a model and an initiator, with clear insights of where they are at and where they are going, so that they may create the momentum around them needed to move forward as a learning organisation.

Overview:

Building on delegates’ current experience of being managers, this course stretches their perception of their job and works on expanding their comfort zone to a place where they are confident to take a stand and make bold decision, clearly communicated and effectively implemented. With a strong focus on self-awareness and awareness of others, this course provides sharp tools and strategies to take a step up from ’simply managing’.

Participants will develop an understanding of:

• The qualitative difference between managing and leading
• The complex belief system and rule book that guide their every decision - mostly unawarely
• The strengths they can rely on and blind-spots they need to work on
• Their own need for a sustainable source of support and inspiration
• The importance of fostering each team member’s leadership capabilities

Participants will learn key skills to:

• Address personal barriers to effective leadership
• Sharpen their communication habits
• Develop and implement a team vision
• Build an enabling and motivating team environment
• Align their and their team’s personal goals with organisational goals
• Practice creative decision making and problem-solving
