Strategic Leadership and Executive Management in the Oil and Gas Industry Training Course in Naivasha, Kenya
Classroom training in Naivasha · next cohort Nov 2, 2026 · from USD 1,500
Few capabilities shape day-to-day performance as directly as sound leadership roles and sector challenges, yet many professionals still pick it up informally on the job. Across 5 days, participants work through leadership roles and sector challenges, governance, ethics, and accountability, and performance indicators and accountability, practising each technique on realistic workplace cases rather than abstract theory. Short expert inputs alternate with guided practice and peer discussion, keeping every topic anchored in the realities of the workplace. The programme suits senior managers and executives, team leaders and supervisors, and department and unit heads, along with anyone stepping into a role where this work becomes part of the job.
By the end, participants can plan and apply governance, ethics, and accountability, judge the quality of the evidence in front of them and present recommendations that decision-makers can act on. Training is available in the classroom, online or in-house, and in-house sessions can be tailored to a team's own systems, cases and priorities. Successful participants receive a CPD-accredited certificate recording the learning hours completed. Places can be booked online for any upcoming session.
