Course Overview
Managers are promoted for competence and then judged on employee onboarding programmes, which nobody trained them for. Most failures in the wider organisational leadership agenda trace back to a conversation someone avoided having. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what this strand of organisational leadership has actually achieved. Ambition around employee onboarding programmes outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. It suits anyone whose decisions touch the wider organisational leadership agenda, in large organisations and small ones alike. Participants leave with a method for this area of organisational leadership, not a set of opinions about it. Where employee onboarding programmes is measured, it improves; where it is only discussed, it drifts. Every module pairs a short input on the practice within organisational leadership with structured practice on the participant's own material. It ends with a prioritised list of changes to this part of organisational leadership that the participant is prepared to defend internally.
