How to Excel at Leading People
“Great leaders are no more born than great doctors are born. While people may have natural
tendencies for success, in their personal makeup, they take the training and educatio n that sets
them up and sets them apart. Have you received the training needed to be the best leade r you can
be? Do you feel like a vital member of your management tea m? Assuming the role of leade r does
not prepare us for the challenges of a workforce varied in age, experience, expectations or
willingness.
This programme takes the complexity and confusion out of how to be an effective leade r. Whether
delegates are new to the jo b or well-established, they'll take home dozens of fresh ideas,
imaginative solutions and best practices they can use the very next day. You will increase your skills
and awareness to handle leadership issues ensuring personal and organisational success!
To succeed in your expanding role, you've got to get in tune with the times and keep one step
ahead of the changes. That means continually updating your skills and seeking out all the freshest
ideas, latest strategies and cutting-edge techniques you can get your hands on. That's where this
intensive, hands-on workshop comes in. In just a day, you'll get the most up-to-the-minute
information and techniques available on how to manage change, motivate, discipline, delegate,
inspire, and problem solve – all the critical skills you need to succeed as a leade r.”
People at upper management levels within their organisation whose role involves decision making
and the communication of their decisions with impact and influence to all levels of the organisation

well, rather than focusing on what's wrong or what needs to be fixed.

their knowledge and tools to improve clarity and acceptance of interaction to begin improving the
communication atmosphere and culture within their organisation to the mutual benefit of all
concerned.
