Leadership - Turning Values Into Action: In-House

<h2>Leadership - Turning Values Into Action</h2><p>Leadership implies followership. And that means trust. Because who's going to follow a leader they don't trust?</p><p>This programme takes a values-driven approach to leadership. It gets current and aspiring leaders to hold up the mirror to themselves and to see their reflections as leaders of people. It asks them whether what they see justifies their view of themselves as leaders. It helps them understand just what it takes to be an effective leader.</p><p>And it does so in a highly practical, constructive manner. It helps the participants to truly understand the core skills of effective leadership. It focuses on the difference between leadership and management, defining what high performing teams do and how they do it. It helps people to see their teams from different perspectives, allowing them to adapt their styles to maximise team outputs. And it explores concepts such as emotional intelligence, authentic leadership and the RAIV approach (relationships-achievement-independence-vocation) to help explore underlying values and use them to drive effective leadership.

<p>High quality specifications are of paramount importance in achieving the right technical performance and value for money. This long-established training programme has been developed to help those involved in producing specifications to create high quality documents in an organised and effective way. It provides a sound foundation for those new to the topic whilst at the same time offering new insights to those with more experience.</p><p>The programme emphasises the need for a clear definition of requirements combined with the ability to communicate those requirements effectively to third parties. A structured method of preparing specifications is provided, and a range of practical techniques is presented, to enable participants to put the principles into practice. The commercial and contractual role of specifications is also addressed.</p>The objectives of the workshop are to:<ul><li>Provide a clear understanding of the role and purpose of specifications</li><li>Present a framework for organising and producing specifications</li><li>Define the key steps involved in creating effective specifications</li><li>Demonstrate methods for assisting in defining requirements</li><li>Provide tools and techniques for scoping and structuring specifications</li><li>Show the role of specifications in managing variations and changes to scope</li><li>Present methods to assist the writing and editing of specifications</li><li>Review how specifications should be issued and controlled</li></ul><section>
