Leadership development is a key part of our training programs. Leadership development happens from the inside out. Learning "about" leadership is not enough to become a leader. Finding out what others have found to be good leadership is not enough to become a leader. Knowing the theories of leadership is not enough to become a leader. Leadership is something that is learned over time, based on life experience, learned knowledge, successes and failures and often with help and guidance from peers and mentors. We believe a leader is able to maintain creative contact with themselves and with others in life situations that are simple or complex and in reflective unpressured times as well as in crises. A leader maintains an inner harmony and stability whilst at the same time projecting themselves outward toward others. Thus leadership is based on the development of abilities over a long period of time. It is not based on the acquisition of techniques or skills.Our leadership programs are based around your development by capitalising on your life experience, that of those around you and your capacity to critically reflect and integrate your learnings.
