Live Online Leadership Fundamentals for Emerging Leaders Training Course
Live online, instructor-led · next cohort Nov 30, 2026 · from USD 800
The step from strong individual contributor to first-time leader is one of the hardest career transitions, and many new managers are promoted without being shown how. Over five days you examine core leadership models, including situational and transformational leadership, and identify your own style, strengths and blind spots. Communication sessions cover active listening, giving and receiving feedback, influencing without authority and running productive meetings. You also practise structured decision-making and problem solving, using data to support choices, before moving on to delegation, motivation, goal setting and performance management.
Role-plays recreate common early-leadership challenges, such as managing former peers, addressing underperformance and handling conflict within a team. The final day widens the lens to organizational impact, showing how to align your team with strategy, build trust upward and sideways, and plan your own growth as a leader. Newly appointed supervisors, team leaders, high-potential staff and professionals preparing for their first management role are the intended group. You return with a 100-day leadership plan and practical habits to apply from your first week back.
