LEADING ACROSS THE WHOLE SYSTEM

Unlocking Your Leadership

Practical approaches for emerging leaders

There is now a growing recognition that leadership capability should be built more widely in the public services, not just at the top of the hierarchy. This programme will help you understand what you need to do to be a leader; understand how this is different from being a manager; develop insights into your personality and strengths.
