Introduction

The best leaders thoroughly understand themselves. Time and time again, research has shown that self-awareness and self-direction are two essential factors in leadership effectiveness. As leaders gain a better sense of themselves and a clearer plan to self-actualization, they also:

• Understand leadership in a brand-new way
• Discover the “inner” leader as a source of growth
• Tap into your amazing hidden personal power
• Take team development to new levels of achievement
• Learn to lead through excellent communication skills

• View leadership from a new and higher-level perspective
• Discover and analyse your leadership style and tendencies
• Grow in personal power and effectiveness

Training Methodology

The instruction of this dynamic seminar will consist of content lecture, video dramatizations, assessments, engaging class discussions, and many exercises to make the learning come alive. Because "Leadership Development: Self-Awareness, Skills and Strategies" is so extensive in scope, the seminar will be delegate-centered and need-driven. The actual extent and time allocated to each topic will be determined by initial and daily observations of their relevance to the delegates day-to-day work requirements.
