Course overview

Moving from management to leadership requires more than understanding theory. To succeed, a leader must understand their own working style, build trust with their staff, and make sound decisions under pressure. This programme helps professionals develop the emotional intelligence required to direct teams in a dynamic environment.

The course examines the differences between leadership and management before moving to the psychology of influence. Delegates learn how to communicate clearly. They also look at how to resolve workplace conflict, alongside practical techniques for delegation, coaching, and managing staff performance.

The final two days focus on strategic planning and managing change. Delegates look at how to overcome resistance. They also examine how to adapt to new technologies, including the impact of artificial intelligence on leadership roles. Finally, the course finishes with a session where delegates identify their strengths and create a long-term roadmap for their career development.
