Leadership requires attention for the intended goal, for the team and for yourself. You are looked upon to priorities, make people enthusiastic and help them grow. With this course you will learn how to give effective leadership to people and together with them, help them get the results they are aiming to achieve.

“Everyone has their own potential to grow further but they sometimes simply don’t know why and how to unlock it through self-reflection. Their programs have helped my people managers to find time to think of themselves with the basic questions like ‘who am I?’, ‘what am I doing this job for’ and ‘where am I heading for?’. This naturally led to the interest and intent of self-development as next step.”
B.C. Kim (CS Director, ASML Korea)
“It is an unforgettable program in my leadership journey. It made me start to change myself suddenly off the engineer and into the leader using my potentials.”
“The program turned my anxiety and hesitation out to full of confidence as a leader by self-awareness and empathy with crew.”
“I now realize that it is much more effective to manage my work through others. It does not means that I just transfer my work to others. I am still responsible, but what I learned is to communicate, delegate and motivate effectively to achieve our common purpose.”
