ADVANCED LEADERSHIP, AND MANAGEMENT TRAINING PROGRAMS
LEADERSHIP EXCELLENCE FOR SENIOR MANAGERS
I suppose leadership at one time meant muscles; but today it means getting along with people . Mahatma Gandhi
Workers generally want to be fully engaged, and committed to what they're doing. They want to believe in the people who are in charge. Because of these higher expectations, it's vital for leaders to know how to inspire passion and confidence in the people they're leading.
When people work alongside a truly authentic leader, they'll often give their best to the cause. In such an environment, a spirit of teamwork and loyalty can spread throughout an organization, resulting in high morale and producing extraordinary results.

STRATEGY AND WORK CULTURE ALIGNMENT THE TRUE GAME CHANGERS
Aligning company culture with business strategy to achieve organizational excellence is the current key differentiator between performing and non performing organisations.
Culture is viewed as the organizational values and beliefs that guide an organization’s attitudes and behaviors. Strategy is the framework for pursuing your vision and business goals. So why the need for alignment? Simply put, organizational culture drives performance—what you do is proof of what you believe. When companies lack congruence between their culture and their actual practices, they struggle to perform.
This training helps top leadership at public and private sector organizations to assess their current organizational culture and determine if it adequately supports the strategy.

DESIGNING STRATEGIES FOR ORGANISATIONAL SERVICE EXCELLENCE
You can't control anything you can't measure ... an organisation that is trying to get into its customers' good books without a sensitive barometer to measure how WELL it is serving its customer base, is like a miner deep down under without a headlight! Businesses and organisations are mired in the classical financial indicators, which are necessary, but grossly insufficient for the purpose, for the simple reason that those indicators have two major weaknesses - they are very much LAGGING; worse, they have zero DIAGNOSTIC capability. When these indicators head south, it is way too late to figure out the root cause. They give no clues whatsoever, as to what might have gone awry

EFFECTIVE CUSTOMER CARE PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT
Within customer service there are many elements which must be organized, but the crucial constant factor is the human element – how people are treated and communicated with.
