Leadership 2.0
Leadership is all about influence. Becoming a Good Boss demands an openness to continual growth.
In Good Boss, Bad Boss: How to Be the Best and Learn from the Worst, Robert Sutton helps us understand why self-assessment, reflection, feedback, knowledge and experience will be key to our success as leaders. Those not open to feedback, personal change or feel nothing more can be learned, are likely future Bad Bosses. If you are in a leadership role, or are about to take on that role and wish to strengthen your leadership skills, this seminar is designed with you in mind.
How do you feel you are as a leader? How do others view you as a leader? Do people respect you and view you as a someone they wish to emulate? The journey to being a leader is a continuous one and there is always more to learn. Becoming a Good Boss takes time, experience and a willingness to learn and adjust behaviours. Leadership 2.0 is an opportunity for those wishing to maximize their potential as effective leaders.
Leadership 2.0 is a required seminar for the Certificate in Practical Leadership.
