Overview

People at management level have already displayed that they're dependable and competent.

On the one hand, management is task-oriented and requires discipline, focus, work ethic and knowledge. Leadership, on the other hand, requires strategic thinking, innovation, the ability to inspire and influence.

"Managers are knowledgeable, leaders are insightful. Managers are known as action-oriented, leaders get tagged as visionary. Managers are informed, while leaders step that up to be influential. Managers focus on the tactical, leaders are strategic." In this course, executive coach Sara Canaday provides us with tried-and-tested actionable recommendations for boosting our self-awareness, practising emotional intelligence and cultivating an executive presence. Building on this self-improvement, we are able to develop and nurture new and old relationships, understand and manage our impact on people, and develop future leaders within our own teams.

"Leaders are on a much different track. They influence and inspire. They strategize and set the agenda. They cultivate talent, engage their stakeholders, and build powerhouse teams. The mindset is different."
