From Employee to Leader
Basic Workshop on Leadership
The demands on managers have changed: While the focus used to be more on expertise, it is now increasingly on leadership skills. Knowledge of the theoretical foundations and diverse tools is the prerequisite for being able to utilize them in a flexible manner. Yet another important tool is the leader’s personal style, his or her way of dealing with themselves and others and how this behaviour is perceived by others. Exactly there is the focus in this training.
