Strategic Leadership

Personalised leadership coaching, team building, and team development

The Strategic Leadership Course empowers both new and seasoned leaders working at the strategic level to position their teams and organisations for tomorrow’s challenges. Based on the fundamentals and frameworks set out in the Essential Leadership course, we add in the elements required to lead with purpose in areas where ambiguity, risk, and change are the only constants. The course includes modules on strategic thinking, toxic leadership, leading change, and the importance of setting culture. Participants learn to align day-to-day actions with long-term direction. Together, we explore the analytical and humanistic components of leadership to sharpen your ability to have brave conversations, demonstrate the behaviours you want to see, and confidently lead through influence.
