Leadership is a major issue in British management. An organisation’s leaders are responsible for setting corporate values, for sponsoring innovation and creativity, for managing risk and for developing individuals and teams. Senior management teams need to recognise leadership potential and nurture it for succession planning and expansion.
CBAs course places the potential ‘leaders of tomorrow’ at its centre and allows them to explore concepts of leadership, to gain the confidence to put these into practise. It will help an individual to recognise his/her strengths and to build on these so he/she moves towards reaching personal and professional goals within the organisation’s management team. It is based on running a series of learning days over 3-6 months. We have run this course for PR consultancies and advertising agencies - but it is transferable to any organisational setting
