Research clearly indicates that leadership skills can be identified and developed through leadership training. Investing in staff leadership training and mentoring with staff in key positions as early as possible will prove to be extremely beneficial as the business grows in size.
In our courses, leadership skills and qualities are carefully observed through out our leadership activities and feedback is provided constantly to improve the candidates as much as possible. With this approach, common mistakes are ironed out quickly through group discussion and good practise is encouraged. The course provides opportunities for learners to develop leadership skills and demonstrate how they perform in a leadership role.
