About the course

Leadership is a very well studied but still poorly understood phenomenon. As we progress in our careers, we inevitably take on more leadership responsibility; whether it is deciding our next individual path, influencing another person, or leading a team, group, department, or organization.

Thankfully, especially for professionals in the earlier stages, leadership influence is something that can be explored and practiced before we reach a position of supervisorial or managerial authority. This focused and interactive online event will help to develop your thinking about what leadership is, how you can lead authentically and how to get the best from the people around you.

We consider:

  • What does it mean to be a leader in a professional environment?
  • The importance of strategic awareness and vision (both contextual and personal)
  • Authenticity and leading through values
  • Creating appropriate and positive cultures and climates
  • Motivating, driving, and supporting high performance teams
  • Getting the best out of people through coaching
  • Leadership in dispersed / virtual teams

The approach to the event will be interactive, discursive, but pragmatic and above all supportive, so that participants develop an authentic and flexible leadership style.
