Overview
The security and profitability of your business will depend on
long-term relationships reinforced by customer confidence in the
ability of managers and leaders in the supply chain. This requires
flexibility, focus, empathy, encouragement and a well-balanced
attitude. It also requires good business awareness, creative
thinking styles, problem solving skills, emotional intelligence and
cultural understanding to guide both yourself and others towards
success.
This master class is for technical professionals who want to
enhance their market awareness, their personal focus, and gain
the necessary skills to achieve recognition and then transition
towards high performance management and leadership levels in
their business area.
In aspiring to advance their personal development in strategy,
leadership, management skills, organisation and business focus,
they will find the key to their success.
Each participant will have a chance to ask the key questions that
relate to their own personal journey from technical professional
to manager and leader in their own organisations and share any
issues – one-to-one or in group format.
To aid this process, we have included the unique Leadership
Charter© to enable participants to assess their individual skills to
achieve that next management role in their own organisation.
