Managers are promoted for competence and then judged on transformational leadership of high-performing teams, which nobody trained them for. Most failures in high-performing teams trace back to a conversation someone avoided having. The course sets out a working method for this aspect of organisational leadership that participants can apply the week they return. They acquire practical criteria for judging when transformational leadership of high-performing teams is working and when it is only appearing to. Organisations that document the organisational leadership capability properly resolve disputes about it far more quickly. Progress on high-performing teams is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. It is designed for mixed groups, so that transformational leadership of high-performing teams is examined from more than one functional angle. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in high-performing teams rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. Participants leave with a first-ninety-days plan for the organisational leadership discipline rather than a set of notes.
