Course description
Senior Leadership Programme - CMI Level 7
This Level 7 accredited Senior Leadership Programme presents professionals with the opportunity to dedicate themselves to their continued professional development; providing a platform to learn, reflect and grow.
The programme is aimed at leaders in any sector, having been designed to help leaders gain a better understanding of the dynamics within their senior management teams and enable them to evaluate and improve their personal approach to leadership.
You won’t be taught basic managerial skills, but supported to explore a range of different leadership styles, developing the skills you already have through reflecting on and analysing your own approach working on your emotional and political intelligence.
This engaging programme will allow participants to develop a sound understanding of applicable leadership models to work more effectively with complex leadership challenges and relational dynamics, their practical application through real-world examples, case studies, activities and discussion.
Extending beyond the individual, the programme explores the importance of culture, collaboration and high-performing teams. Collectively, this will provide the foundation for strategic thinking and planning, enabling participants to apply their learning to their own role and the broader organisation.
