Course Details
Leadership is critical for success in organizations and in leading and managing teams. It is needed at all levels, not only at the top. One definition of leadership is: "Motivating, organizing and influencing a group of people to achieve a common goal." Some say leaders are born; however, we all possess leadership traits. Amongst other qualities, effective leaders possess conceptual skills and social influence, have clear vision and values, demonstrate consistent behaviors and communicate well. To be effective, these traits and abilities must be cultivated. Through discussion, interactive assignments and lecture by a seasoned practitioner of leader development, this course helps you acquire the knowledge, perspectives, orientations, skills, tools and practical actions needed to lead effectively.
