Strategic Leadership

24th - 25th July 2008
Accra, Ghana
Standard Delegate fee: £1200

In today's world, one of the main aims of the leader is to develop the capability of the organisation to handle change and the challenges of the future, even if those challenges have yet to be discovered. Because of the increase in regulation in all sectors and the risk of litigation, leading in the organisational setting is becoming increasingly difficult. Organisations need leaders who can handle these challenges effectively. At the same time, people who feel they are led effectively from the top find it easier to cope with and perform under higher pressure levels and therefore achieve the ultimate business goal. Using a broad range of learning techniques to provide practical training and give a sound foundation in strategic leadership theory, this very practical and pragmatic programme will provide a unique learning opportunity.
