Course Description:

'' The essence of being an effective leader lies in establishing good interpersonal work relationships and having the ability to get things done through people who may work outside of formal reporting lines. Leaders can’t take a cookie cutter approach to managing and influencing people. A leadership style that motivates and inspires one individual might plunge another into poor performance. This programme looks at strategies to adapt leadership styles and establish influencing strategies to enable leaders to get their good ideas heard, accepted, and enacted. Participants learn how to package their ideas to gain the commitment of even the most sceptical co-workers and colleagues.

Leaders will learn how to tailor their approaches based on others motivations, personality styles, the organisational environment, and the situation. By better meeting the needs of each individual, leaders create higher levels of engagement and improve organisational results.
