In order to increase their impact, leaders must understand and influence the people with whom they work and inevitably lead. Before the program, participants will conduct a 360° questionnaire and then examine the outcomes of this during the program. This enables participants to identify how others see them in their leadership role, and examine ways to improve other's perceptions of them.

Overview

Contemporary leaders need to be clear about whether they are providing the type of leadership that is required. They are purpose driven, curious and work to improve the way they influence their teams through their actions and communications.

This program is designed to help you understand how you are perceived by your team, how to influence those perceptions and how you can leverage your strengths to influence team members in a more positive way. By doing so, the program will help you build the capability to achieve results and become a leader who is relevant, contemporary and reliable.

The program also provides you with a 360° leadership styles assessment and the opportunity to explore the outcomes during the program.

Participants will also have access to optional one-on-one coaching sessions with one of the program facilitators
(3 x 1 hour sessions).
