Leadership & Management: 1 Day Workshop

Please see below an outline for our Leadership & Management: 1 Day Workshop, which is available as an in-house training course for your staff. The course will be tailored to your company needs.

OVERVIEW

Being a leader is not the same as being a manager, and vice versa.

Managers create order out of complexity; they keep the trains running on schedule. Leaders, in contrast, deal with ambiguity, change, and opportunity; they push the train tracks where they’ve never gone before.

The distinction is not entirely accurate, because leaders must also manage. To be effective, leadership cannot just be about inspiration and grand visions, but also about getting results. This is often a dilemma for the director or manager in a growing entrepreneurial business.

This course therefore addresses this dilemma by providing an understanding of what goes into making a good leader and a good manager and gives practical tips on how to apply it in your every-day interactions with staff. It will help you to transform your style from being a task-orientated ‘doer’ to a strategist with an appreciation of the ‘bigger picture’.
