Managing and Leading People
How organisation, culture and people’s behaviours, development and motivation impact the journey to excellence.
Course Overview
As the demands of business get greater and the tools and systems available to us grow ever more sophisticated, our people remain our greatest asset and our ultimate differentiator.
This interactive course will enable executives and senior managers to understand their business maturity and the style of organisation, culture and behaviours most likely to lead to success. It also provides a guide to the establishment of a working environment where change is welcomed and initiated by everyone in the business to ensure that business successes are ongoing and sustainable.
The course explains the relationship between business strategy, maturity, and organisation; highlights the importance of knowing and changing yourself; develops the understanding of effective leadership skills; and describes the latest approaches to integrate change management from the company strategies through to detailed process engineering and improvement.
