Stepping Up: How to accelerate your leadership potential

Description

Ever felt like you need an inspired action plan on how to step up?

Stepping up could be about taking on your first leadership or management role. It could be about changing your career, or leaving employment to start up on your own. It could be about changing the way you run a team already under your management.

Whatever your circumstances, you will face the same issues we all do: changing attitudes, changing technology and our fast-moving rollercoaster of a world. Stepping Up will inspire and equip you to understand and respond to that change and develop your ability to lead yourself and others through it.

Follow the practical five point framework on how to step up and fulfil your ambitions:

1. Vision – How to reset your rules in a complex and changing landscape

2. Values – Develop your leadership mission by understanding why you want to lead

3. Velocity – Invest in yourself and build the skills and capabilities of a great leader

4. Votes – Invest in your team and bring together a fantastic team of people to take you on your journey

5. Victories – Deliver brilliant results and ensure you can deliver on your promises

Accelerate your skills and potential, and take charge of your leadership career.
