Introduction

More than ever before, implementing strategic improvement changes in an organization requires leaders who think and act in a strategic manner. To maintain competitiveness, work is becoming increasingly complex and sophisticated, but often strategic improvements are implemented by competent professionals who have little or no strategic leadership training. Modern organizations cannot afford anything less than competent management that leads to successfully implemented improvements. Establishing and maintaining personal and team leadership skills, creating productive work environments and leading teams in strategic activities to meet goals is a challenging, every-day part of a strategic leader’s life.

This program offers an opportunity to focus on the development and use of strategic leadership practices that allow for effective and efficient management of strategic improvements. It provides practical skills to take back to the job, along with insights needed to adapt principles to specific work environments. The seminar is designed to give participants an in-depth understanding of the skills required to successfully demonstrate strategic leadership.

Technical reports often present complex information to non-specialists.  Their effectiveness depends as much on the quality of the writer’s ideas as on the accuracy of their information.  An effective technical report displays complicated information in ways that make it easy to understand, and – above all – relevant to the reader.

Did you know there is a secret language of leadership that determines who reaches the top in politics and business? This course sets out the techniques that you can use to speak like a leader. Public speaking is required in almost every business role, but a variety of factors cause many professionals to struggle when talking in front of an audience. Attend this Public Speaking & Presentation Skills training course and learn to present with confidence!
