HIGH PERFORMANCE LEADERSHIP (HPL)

Our participants

HPL is for experienced executives with demonstrated success as leaders at multi-functional team levels and above, and whose jobs now call for even greater leadership performance at individual, team and company-wide levels. This program will work best for participants who already have good self-understanding, perhaps through previous leadership training, systematic performance appraisal or similar. Participants should expect to take an active role in the classroom, discussing their own leadership patterns and receiving input from others.
