Essential Leadership

About this training

Do you suddenly get new responsibilities? Or do you take over the management of the family company? Do you want to further develop your leadership skills? For managers, team supervisors and executive staff,  targets are essential.

In this practice-oriented training, you will learn about the necessary strategies and leadership styles enabling you to achieve these results. You will acquire all tools and techniques required for steering your staff members in a coaching, inspiring way and thereby enhancing your leadership. 

The Essence of Leadership

Leadership is all about influencing and inspiring individuals to achieve common goals. It starts with a thorough understanding of your team members, their strengths and weaknesses, and how to harness their full potential. It's about empowerment, where you encourage team members to take responsibility and expand their capabilities.

Leadership versus Management

An essential distinction is the difference between leadership and management. While management focuses on efficient processes and results, leadership goes further by creating a vision, charting a course and inspiring others to embrace that vision. While managers ensure compliance with procedures, leaders cultivate an environment of engagement and innovation.

Leadership Development

The journey to mastery in leadership is continuous. Self-reflection, ongoing education and learning from experience are invaluable. Participate in leadership training, seek mentorship and remain open to new ideas to strengthen your leadership skills.

Leadership evolves over time. In a rapidly changing world, leaders must adapt to new technologies, diverse teams and complex challenges. Agile leaders are able to navigate uncertainty and change while adhering to timeless values such as integrity and ethics.

Testimonials

“I wanted to learn specific tips for enhancing human relationships in the working environment - both as a manager and as a team member myself. I learned a lot about how I can change my own behaviour and communication to enhance people management. We closed the day with an action plan. This was excellent. As people managers we have become far more aware of how we function!”
