LEADERSHIP TRAINING
Target Audience
For managers new to leadership positions or needing to understand more about the impact of different leadership styles.
Course Aim
This interactive leadership skills course will enable participants to review their own management leadership styles, identify what works well for them and the people they lead and what they want to continue, change and develop.
Course Objectives
By the end of leadership training, managers will have:
- Defined the role of the leader and appreciated the likely expectations of the people they will manage
- Gained an understanding of the impact of different leadership styles on individuals, teams and the organisation as a whole.
- Identified how to adapt their style of leadership to each team member and the context of the situation
- Reviewed their own current style of leadership and considered potential areas for future leadership development.
- The Training Leadership Development Training Program has been highly praised by our business clients as the essential skills required to be a talented leader are presented in a format that is both informative and empowering at the same time.
- Through patience, persistence and hard work, anyone can become a highly effective leader. The responsibility is on you to implement the strategies taught in this course and to identify and correct changes in certain behaviours which may be quite difficult. The skills required to be a great team player are not always the same skills required to effectively lead the team. This is why Executive Leadership Development is so highly sought after by most successful companies.
- The primary role of a leader also requires a thorough understanding of the team’s needs, aspirations and concerns, so it is important to have excellent listening and facilitation skills as well as highly developed abilities to coach and mentor others. This Leadership and Influencing Skills Training Program will teach you that effective leadership starts with a thorough understanding of oneself, which then allows you to support and lead others towards stated organisational goals.
