Training Course on Building High-Impact Leaders (Online / Remote)
1Summary
Being a good manager and being a real leader are two different things — and the gap between them is exactly what this course is built to close. It is aimed at managers who are already handling day-to-day operations well but are ready to step up to a bigger leadership role, with more influence and a wider circle of trust around them.
Across the programme, delegates work through the Aspire 5 Powers model of effective leadership, explore their own leadership style through situational leadership tools, and pick up practical coaching and communication techniques they can use with their teams straight away. The course is delivered by a team of internationally experienced managers, and follow-up coaching can be arranged for delegates who want extra support after the programme ends.
