Course Overview
Most failures in leadership self-awareness trace back to a conversation someone avoided having. The hardest part of this part of organisational leadership is rarely deciding — it is holding the decision when it becomes unpopular. What blocks progress on the organisational leadership capability is usually unclear ownership rather than unclear intent. Across sectors, teams that rehearse leadership self-awareness outperform teams that only plan it. Participants leave with a method for this area of organisational leadership, not a set of opinions about it. The programme works equally well for those formalising this part of organisational leadership for the first time and those improving an existing approach. Participants apply leadership self-awareness to their own management team throughout, so the output is directly usable. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about the organisational leadership discipline under scrutiny. The programme ends where implementation begins, with this aspect of organisational leadership broken into steps someone can start on Monday.
