Structure

The aim of this Leadership Academy workshop is to provide attendees with practical guidance in order to support their staff and teams working remotely.

This workshop is a blend of sharing best practice with practical exercises where the attendees will share their relevant insights and discuss the implications that are context specific.

    Thought provoking and enjoyable

    It was a superb session; I had wondered what we could have been talking over and considering for a day-long session, but it was the right duration, and more importantly you put people at their ease, so I think we had a good opportunity to air views and pick up the challenges. Thought-provoking and enjoyable, thank you.
