[Background & Aims] [Is it worth it?] [Who should come?] [What will I get out of it?]

Background & Aims

Healthy and balanced organisations are ones where leadership is courageous, the vision for the future is clear and everyone can contribute to improving results. This one-day event will expand your leadership and management skills and confidence. You will learn new ways of leading groups that are efficient, effective and energising. We will try out and discuss methods used in the most creative and innovative of organisations in the corporate world.

Participants will experience different ways of working in groups using methods that bring out the best in everyone and achieve results. Annette Zera will take you through some of the ideas and process tools from the workbook Getting on Brilliantly that she has written with Susan Murray and had published by NIACE. Annette was Principal of Tower Hamlets College and led the team that created one of the most successful colleges in the country. For the past two years she has been working as an independent facilitator of large group meetings, trainer and coach.

There will be opportunities to try out new approaches and think about how they might be applied in your own workplace.

A free copy of the Getting on Brilliantly book costing £65 will accompany the course.
