| Welcome to Personal Leadership Insight |
Leadership is something most businesses strive to achieve in their industries. Leadership operates at many levels, including country, industry, business, product, and personal levels. But businesses and countries don’t lead unless individuals lead. In this course experience, you will look at your own personal leadership capabilities and develop the insight necessary to transform your leadership. You will explore the knowledge, skill, and discipline that build your leadership capital; you will determine the direction of your leadership journey; and you will learn to tell compelling stories that allow people to follow the direction you have set.
Registration deadline for the May 20-24 session: April 15. Late registrations will be considered if space is available. |
