Effective Motivational Leadership
A programme for leaders of teams and organisations. It covers setting a shared direction, motivating and developing people, building teams that take responsibility, and leading change.
People follow a direction they believe in.
As responsibility grows, the job shifts from managing work to leading people towards something. Effective Motivational Leadership is designed for leaders who recognise needs like these.
For experienced managers and senior leaders who lead teams, lead other managers, or set direction for the organisation.
-
No shared direction
People work hard, but not always towards the same vision, mission and values.
-
Motivation
You want people who are motivated from within, not pushed.
-
Teams that depend on you
Your team waits for you to decide, instead of taking responsibility themselves.
-
Leading change
Change keeps coming, and you need to bring people with you through it.
