DESCRIPTION
Over recent years, ways of working within many organisations
have changed dramatically. Rather than working in distinct divisions
or units, much work is be carried out by multi - disciplinary teams
selected on a project by project basis on the grounds of expertise
and skills most suited for the job.
This change in work methods has major implications for the leadership
role. Project team leaders are be required to manage and lead changing
teams with diverse backgrounds, experience and expectations. They
are required to inspire team members toward the achievement of project
goals in a manner that is more facilitative than directive, fostering
the concepts of consultation, team member self management and accountability
in the process.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this two day workshop is to assist managers,
team leaders and others responsible for leading people
in projects in developing all the key skills for successful team
leadership in a manner which although focused on outcomes is facilitative
in approach and in keeping with the requirements of consultation,
empowerment and team member self control.
