Ascending Leaders – Transition to Senior Leadership

The transition for a frontline leader to senior leadership requires a mind shift. As you ascend to higher levels of leadership the gears need to shift from a more task focused operational approach, to a people focused strategic approach. This means resetting how you spend your time, approach your stakeholder management and drive culture.

Establishing the right work practices, operating rhythms and leadership behaviours in the beginning will set you up for success, secure your gravitas and earn you respect in the senior role. This program focuses on this transition, provides you with the tools to make the shift, and helps to further establish yourself in a senior/executive role.

Strategic Leadership (Senior) Step Up

As leaders move up towards senior levels of the organisation, the shift from operational to strategic is critical. The leaders time needs to be spent in the leadership space and not the management space. Creating vision, influencing, engaging and inspiring others should be day to day practices. It’s less about the technical and more about the people. Being visible and present yet still spending time on planning, review and strategy can be a delicate balance. This program focuses on making the transition to senior and executive leadership roles. What does the journey look like? What are the critical success factors, and why should anybody follow me?

Strategic Planning
