Corporate Leadership Development

“Wanted urgently: New leaders for a New World”

There is a serious shortage of visionary leadership in the corporate world today. This is hardly unexpected because leaders are now facing unprecedented challenges in all sectors. The issues of globalisation, emerging technology, changing markets, litigation, staff expectations, and environmental sustainability are all well known. Corporate and government leaders have a major responsibility to change the state of our workplace, our community and our world.

This program aims to provide the leaders of tomorrow with the new competencies that they need to better respond to the shifting sands that beset the corporate world and the public sector today. Traditional authoritarian leadership is obsolete and new skills are essential to re-inspire employees who have rising expectations of autonomy and opportunity, and to guide organisations that must make multiple internal changes to meet global external challenges.

Vision and values, authenticity, agility and the ability to provide meaning and purpose are core requirements for future leaders, as are emotional intelligence and the capacity to support and motivate others. Values have a profound impact on both leadership behaviors and staff performance, and will be assessed at the outset of the program. Above all, new leaders must lead by example, and that demands a whole-hearted commitment to their own on-going personal development.

Who should attend

This program is designed to be taken up by main boards and senior executives of progressive and socially responsible corporations whose intention is to move their organisations from good to great, and to ensure long term financial, social and environmental sustainability.
The program is tailored to each individual organisation addressing their unique business and leadership challenges and issues. This is not a generic public training program.

Program Description:

The three part custom-made program will assess the performance drivers and barriers of the leadership team and define the contextual challenges that face their organisations. It uses a non-prescriptive coaching method, based upon the ground breaking Inner Game principles, to enable each participant to discover and develop their own unique leadership qualities, as well as to activate the peak performance potential of the whole leadership team. The Inner Game is a natural system of learning first applied in sports such as tennis, skiing and golf before being taken into the corporate world by Sir John Whitmore. Sir John has personally trained some of the leading organisations in the world, such as Deloitte, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Barclays, Lloyds, Rolls Royce, British Airways, Novo Nordisk and Roche.

We use sport as a learning metaphor on the program. We also leverage “Whole System Change” principles to address the corporate, social and global context of new leadership applications.
The program is both custom made and co-created with your organisation. The format that we recommend and the resultant design is likely to be as follows:

Part I: Leadership Team Diagnosis

Part II: Tailored Leadership Training

Part III: Leadership Transformation
