Overview
We are living in changing times and never before has it been more important for you, as managers, to take time out of your busy routines to stop, reflect on your leadership approach and learn new ways to achieve results.
This program covers all bases of executive training, and is designed for those whose career is moving to a general management level. The approach and facilitation style of the course is designed to create the ideal learning environment for exploring the topics that matter to managers in those roles.
Topics and content has been selected and interwoven through the program in such a way as to encourage you to think beyond the day to day obligations of your role. At the same time, there is an expectation that you will be focused on how you can turn ideas into strategy to make positive improvements back in your organisation.
