Masterclass One: Leadership Fundamentals
Studies have shown leadership quality to be a significant determinant of an organization’s success. Organizations with strong leaders experience better overall organizational performance, including high levels of customer satisfaction, organizational productivity, financial gains, and product quality.
Effective leadership also has a positive impact on employee retention, performance, engagement, and morale. Despite the criticality of quality leadership, companies often promote individuals to leadership positions, assuming they have a clear understanding of what "it takes" to be a leader, when in reality, they have never been taught the fundamentals of leadership.
This course makes the basic assumption that individuals have not been indoctrinated at a detail level about the foundation of leadership, and build from that position.
