About this course:
We are often called upon to lead at work. We may be asked to lead a small project, team, major initiative, or department. Sometimes we are asked to lead when we least expect it and are unprepared. While leadership is a popular abstract topic, this series of mini-courses is designed with you, the working practitioner, in mind. Our learning objectives revolve around helping you lead and coordinate change at work. This includes leading a team to launch a new product, break into a new market, upgrade customer experience, or handle a crisis to name a few examples.
Our aim is to:
- Help you lead a team to deliver desired outcomes
- Help you be a good follower as a member of a team
- Understand why leadership matters in practice
- Debunk unproven leadership myths and theories
- Apply leadership skills at work and grow as a leader
