Introduction to Leadership

Workshop - Introduction to Leadership

About this Online Workshop

Everyone can be a leader. Leadership is a skill that can be developed over time. When you think about it, you have likely taken on leadership roles in your life and your work that you didn’t realize at the time. So, what makes a good leader? How can you tap into your leadership style, sharpen those skills, and put them to work for you in your career and your life, today?

This session will introduce cutting edge approaches to leadership. Approaches that affect the behaviour of leaders, the performance of teams, and workplace culture.

Participants will have a better understanding what motivates people, what moves performance, what maintains constructive excellence and the evolution of how we think about leadership.
