Who is this course aimed at? Anyone who has been told to ‘demonstrate leadership’ and who would really like to do so. Recent participants have had between five and 29 years’ experience. We recommend a minimum of five years.
Prior to the course they will all have read Shackleton’s Way, a rip roaring adventure story with excellent lessons in leadership; and filled in a questionnaire which helps tailor the workshop to what they need the most. After the workshop, they have private/public action plans to encourage productive use of the learning.
