An Interactive Virtual Classroom series consisting of 4 essential, research-based, 90-minute modules, the short-series program will support you to learn, grow and adapt during this time of global complexity and ambiguity.
You and your teams need support now, more than ever.
What it means to be LEADING. NOW.
- Stepping into your leadership in a time of exponential change, through conscious focus, real-time learning and connection with others.
- Adapting to what’s needed right now. We will support you with the practical ‘how’, grounded in your day-to-day reality, not just the theoretical ‘what’.
Role-modelling excellence in virtual delivery and participant engagement. In these 90-minute, highly interactive sessions we’ll use virtual collaboration tools, demonstrating what’s possible when using the virtual medium well.
Looking after and leading yourself, others, your clients and your communities through unprecedented challenges has never been more important. Massive global changes to the context for business and society as a whole require us to shift and adapt – quickly.
We’ll show you how.
