Course Description
Based on the concept that leadership comes from the person – not the position – this seminar focuses on developing the leader in you. Using a practical and widely used model that is founded on the philosophy that any individual at any level occupying any position in any organization can be a leader, you will explore both the nature and practice of leadership.
