PROGRAM INFORMATION BELOW

Practical Skill Building for Today’s Leaders

  • Targeted Development

    This program combines the use of psychometric assessment tools and evidence-based capability development to ensure all participants finish with a better understanding of themselves and with new skills and capability that will make a tangible impact to their leadership practice.

  • Evidence Based

    The Leadership Essentials Program helps leaders build capability in four key areas that are proven to drive leadership in businesses of all sizes and industries. Every aspect of the program is anchored in contemporary peer-reviewed leadership research.

  • Personalized Support

    Cohort sizes for the Leadership Essentials program are deliberately capped to ensure every participant has the opportunity to receive tailored support from our expert facilitators and can build meaningful networks with their peers.

Leadership Essentials Program Structure

Leadership Essentials is a four month program of practical and highly interactive learning designed to fast-track leadership capability development for new leaders. Through four interactive workshops participants are supported by expert facilitators to build key leadership skills.

  • This one on one onboarding session will offer you a fully supported, debrief of SHL’s Occupational Personality Questionnaire psychometric assessment, with a facilitator who is Masters qualified in Organisational Psychology. The perfect primer for capability development is personal insight and understanding.

  • This workshop focuses on critical elements of effective leadership, your ability to communicate effectively and to create a psychologically safe environment. A leaders ability to create a Psychologically Safe working environment underpins all other elements of leadership, and is now required by law (Occupational Health and Safety Act).

  • The transition from ‘doing’ to ‘overseeing’ work is one of the most common challenges experienced by leaders, and a common source of inefficiency and conflict. Our Six Steps to effective delegation will equip you with skills to delegate in a way that is clear, equitable and empowering.

  • The third workshop will provide a structured approach to managing and reviewing performance and tips on how to support this with a coaching approach to professional development. Combining capability developed in previous sessions, you will leverage these skills in maxmising the contributions of your team into the future.

  • The final session will equip leaders with the skills to effectively identify, constructively engage in, and resolve conflict in the workplace. Turning conflict from a risk to team harmony, productivity and culture into a tool your team can use to achieve its goals.
