Course Overview
Managers are promoted for competence and then judged on employee empowerment and self-regulation, which nobody trained them for. When empowerment and self-regulation is unclear, people default to protecting their own function. It concentrates on the parts of the organisational leadership discipline that determine outcomes and treats the rest proportionately. The professional literature on employee empowerment and self-regulation converges on a small set of controls that reliably work. The level assumes working familiarity with the management team but no prior formal training in this part of organisational leadership. Moving empowerment and self-regulation from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting employee empowerment and self-regulation, ready to be adapted internally. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of empowerment and self-regulation rather than to abstract argument. The programme closes with an action plan for this area of organisational leadership that each participant writes for their own organisation.
