Leadership & Management
The quality of an organisation’s leadership and management is critical to its success. This is true at team, department, and organisation level. But what’s the secret to that quality? How do you ensure it throughout the organisation? How do you become an excellent leader and manager yourself?
As with any professional skills in medicine or law, the skills of leadership and management can be learned and practised; and this course is specifically designed to help you do just that, whatever your role in the organisation.
Its three main sections - (1) delivering stability and growth; (2) managing staff performance; and (3) developing your own effective style - provide the insights and practical steps you need to lead and manage your team, department or organisation with true professionalism.
