Strategic Leadership for Non-Specialists
5 days|Delivered on request
Strategic Leadership for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through stakeholder management and leading distributed teams without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because executives are increasingly appointed for functional depth and then judged on enterprise judgement, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with strategic planning, delegation and accountability and negotiation at senior level in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about strategic planning without waiting for a specialist, measured against the King IV governance code
- Improve delegation and accountability within their own organisation
- Review negotiation at senior level and say plainly whether it is working
- Spot where organisational culture is failing before it becomes a finding
