Build a concise leadership plan for leadership during economic downturn that colleagues can follow without further explanation.
Leading the Organisation Through Economic Downturn and Austerity Decisions
Develop the judgement and the documentation needed to run leadership during economic downturn properly.
Course Overview
When leadership during economic downturn is unclear, people default to protecting their own function. Managers are promoted for competence and then judged on economic downturn, which nobody trained them for. Improvement in this part of organisational leadership stalls when it depends on one capable individual rather than a defined method. The programme is built to be used, and every section of leadership during economic downturn it covers ends in something applicable. Participants gain a realistic view of what this strand of organisational leadership costs and what it returns. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of economic downturn rather than to abstract argument. The professional literature on leadership during economic downturn converges on a small set of controls that reliably work. It is designed for mixed groups, so that economic downturn is examined from more than one functional angle. Work concludes with a self-assessment of this area of organisational leadership that participants can repeat annually.
