    Leadership Programs


    Overview/Description
    No, it’s true, you’re right – management and leadership aren’t equivalent. You can find leaders working throughout an organization. They’re linked together here because managers typically need to develop both management and leadership skills. Most people are slightly confused when trying to define the manager’s role. Perhaps this is because so many enter management positions with little or no formal training. They therefore benefit from programs that focus on key managerial competencies and how to develop them, e.g., motivation, counseling, performance appraisals, and recruitment. Leaders are the members of the organization, no matter their job title, who foster innovation and facilitate change. They possess the skills and abilities to develop and communicate a vision and influence others to follow it.
