Giving positive direction and achieving results together

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.

Daily work practices can be unruly. Often vested interests of stakeholders can be conflicting with each other. Sometimes it seems that team members have a different motivation than yourself. Processes and structures often block effective work practices. So, how do you remain true to yourself while giving good leadership to engineers under these circumstances?

You will find your own source of inspiration, develop a language to motivate other engineers and to coach them so that you can achieve results together.

    Participant
  • "Iedereen heeft zijn eigen potentieel om verder te groeien, maar soms weten ze gewoon niet waarom en hoe ze dit kunnen ontgrendelen door zelfreflectie. Hun programma's hebben mijn people managers geholpen tijd te vinden om aan zichzelf te denken met de basisvragen als 'wie ben ik?', 'Waar doe ik dit werk voor' en 'waar ga ik naartoe?'. Dit leidde natuurlijk tot de interesse en intentie van zelfontwikkeling als volgende stap."
