Why should anyone be led by you? It's a simple question but one that executives often find difficult to answer. If you ask managers what they find most difficult and challenging in their job, the most common and honest reply is 'people'. Success today and tomorrow will depend increasingly on your ability to get people to follow you, not because they have to, but because they want to.

This leadership development programme explores the six demands of leadership and how core leadership skills can be learnt and applied.

The six demands of leadership
This leadership development programme travels a path through the multiple dimensions of leadership as the week progresses. You'll explore the following themes and apply them directly to your own situation:

Understanding yourself
Understanding and leveraging your own personal differences and weaknesses to influence successfully and gain leadership status.

Energising others
How you can motivate others to higher levels of performance.

Enabling change
The tools and frameworks that you can rely upon to influence others and enable change in your organisation.

Building teams
How you can lead individuals effectively and create high performance teams.

Communicating Direction
Developing purpose and vision to channel energy, and communicating with skill.

Enrolling Support
The frameworks to understand culture and the tools you need to shape it.

Comprehensive Learning Experience
This leadership development programme is built around case studies, skill building experiences and personal feedback; you'll learn what it takes to be an exceptional leader. More importantly, this leadership development programme is filled with opportunities for you to practice this learning. You'll be challenged by both faculty and peers on the programme and encouraged to closely examine your personal skill and current mind set.

Through a comprehensive 360-degree feedback survey, you will explore your own ability to be an effective leader, learning where to focus your energies to have greater influence back at the office. You will also learn where you can act with confidence, helped by discovering where colleagues see your strengths as a leader.
