Course outline.

Crisis is common. It is the duration and intensity that matters and how you respond to it. During a crisis, bad leadership precipitates a faster fall while good leadership offers steadiness, vision, direction and perseverance. The good news is like all past crisis, this too shall eventually pass. The challenge is for the leader to stay focused through the duration. During this online course we will over four interactive sessions, help you to deliver the best result possible at the crisis end.

Session 1: Defining the crisis

Session 2: Battling distractions during a crisis

Session 3: Building your character in a crisis

Session 4: Real leadership in crisis

This is very much an interactive course which will be facilitated by an opening 10-15 minute lecture, then a chaired discussion around a series of questions.

At the end of each session will be an application and Reflective Questions to guide your Thoughts and Action. For eg. Session 1 – Decide where you will go to seek trusted information at a time of crisis so your data and insights are accurate. Accessing the right resources will help leaders make healthy and effective decisions based on accurate reliable information.

At the start of the next session we will discuss how the new perspectives have impacted your attitude and what you experienced when you tried incorporating some of these things. A comprehensive course guide is available to be dowloaded on enrolment.
