COURSE DESCRIPTION

Leadership is about the pursuit of certain core priorities that reflect the interest of followers, the leader, and the leader’s benefactors. The assignment fails in the hands of a disproportionate number of leaders due to a misplacement of priorities. For reasons that border on fear, convenience, and personal interest, many leaders major on minor matters and vice versa. This course reveals the priorities that make leaders fail, the most important priorities to pursue, the real challenge with the pursuit of the weightier matters, how to overcome the challenge, and the attributes that help the leader to stay on course at all times. Participants will conduct a self-appraisal and evolve a plan of action to set them on the right path in their leadership journey.
