Course Overview
When leading by example is unclear, people default to protecting their own function. Managers are promoted for competence and then judged on the practice within organisational leadership, which nobody trained them for. Most organisations already have a policy on this part of organisational leadership; far fewer can show it working. Participants who influence leading by example without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. Participants test their assumptions about the organisational leadership capability against scenarios designed to break weak ones. They leave able to brief senior management on the practice within organisational leadership in terms that support a decision. Practitioner evidence points the same way: leading by example improves fastest where responsibility for it is named and owned. Participants leave with a method for the wider organisational leadership agenda, not a set of opinions about it. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on the organisational leadership capability ready to put in front of a decision maker.
