Course Overview
Most failures in results-based management trace back to a conversation someone avoided having. Authority is granted by the organisation; credibility in this aspect of organisational leadership is earned separately. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what this strand of organisational leadership has actually achieved. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for results-based management, not for observers of it. Participants apply this aspect of organisational leadership to their own management team throughout, so the output is directly usable. Most organisations already have a policy on this strand of organisational leadership; far fewer can show it working. Across sectors, teams that rehearse results-based management outperform teams that only plan it. The programme converts this aspect of organisational leadership from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. The programme closes with an action plan for the organisational leadership discipline that each participant writes for their own organisation.
