/><br
/>Did you know&hellip;?<br
/>According to a recent Gallup Poll undertaken over 20 years&hellip;<br
/>Only 13% of employees worldwide are engaged and this has hardly moved over the last 12 years&hellip;<br
/>Gallup has studied performance at hundreds of organisations and measured the engagement of 27 million employees and more than million work units over the past two decades&hellip;<br
/>Gallup has discovered links between employee engagement at the business-unit level and vital performance indicators&hellip;<br
/>Only one in 10 managers has the core skills needed to be a great manager&hellip; and the core skills are&hellip;<br
/><br
/>They motivate every single employee to take action and engage them with a compelling mission and vision. They have the assertiveness to drive outcomes and the ability to overcome adversity and resistance. They create a culture of clear accountability. They build relationships that create trust, open dialogue, and full transparency. They make decisions that are based on productivity, not politics.<br
/><br
/>To address this need the Results Driven Group have developed a programme that is exciting, engaging and challenging which is our Middle Manager - Management and Leadership Development Programme.<br
/><br
/><strong>The programme:</strong><br

/><br
/><strong>Overview</strong><br
/>The Business Managment for Senior Leaders course is designed for senior managers and leaders who want to develop themselves as leaders and managers, who recognise they have to satisfy various stakeholders and also want to invest in their own personal brand.<br
/><br
/>They may manage day to day operations and activities, and in doing so seek to make best use of their resources, understand the need to innovate and have a constant awareness of the need to optimise performance.<br
/><br
/>They may also have to present arguments for change, construct business cases, lead change implementation and evaluate the impact of that change. These are the leader/managers who will benefit from this qualification.<br
/><br
/>Becoming a more effective leader involves delegates in a complex process of changing behaviours, based on an understanding of leadership and on the development of a range of personal and interpersonal skills.<br
/><br
/>Simply understanding what leadership involves, or developing insight into the effect of one&#39;s own emotional state or values on decision-making, or being good at communicating with thers is not sufficient, although each is a necessary component of any leadership role.<br
/><br
/>It is the synthesis of this that enables effective leaders to recognise the effect of their own behaviours on other people and on the organisation, and to manage those behaviours to achieve the goals that they have agreed.<br
/><br
/>Our Senior&nbsp;Leaders development programme places great emphasis on developing this ability; if you are to continue to improve your performance beyond the programme itself - hence the results driven focus.<br
/><br

/><br
/><strong>Overview</strong><br
/>The Level 7 Certificate in Leadership and Management is designed for senior managers and leaders who want to develop themselves as leaders and managers, who recognise they have to satisfy various stakeholders and also want to invest in their own personal brand.<br
/><br
/>They may manage day to day operations and activities, and in doing so seek to make best use of their resources, understand the need to innovate and have a constant awareness of the need to optimise performance.<br
/><br
/>They may also have to present arguments for change, construct business cases, lead change implementation and evaluate the impact of that change. These are the leader/managers who will benefit from this qualification.<br
/><br
/>Becoming a more effective leader involves delegates in a complex process of changing behaviours, based on an understanding of leadership and on the development of a range of personal and interpersonal skills.<br
/><br
/>Simply understanding what leadership involves, or developing insight into the effect of one&#39;s own emotional state or values on decision-making, or being good at communicating with thers is not sufficient, although each is a necessary component of any leadership role.<br
/><br
/>It is the synthesis of this that enables effective leaders to recognise the effect of their own behaviours on other people and on the organisation, and to manage those behaviours to achieve the goals that they have agreed.<br
/><br
/>Our ILM Level 7 Certificate in Leadership &amp; Management development programme places great emphasis on developing this ability; if you are to continue to improve your performance beyond the programme itself - hence the results driven focus.<br
/>This is an important characteristic of all successful leaders that they can reflect on their experiences and learn from them - effective leaders are not afraid of making mistakes, only of repeating mistakes.<br
/><br
/><strong>Accreditation</strong><br
/>The Certificate in Leadership and Management consists of one mandatory unit and allows Results Driven Group and the learner to identify an area, or areas, for investigation into an area of leadership and management in their own work context of particular interest and relevance, and will result in a strategic evaluation of the impact of the area of investigation, thus delivering a positive ROI for the learner and the organisation.<br
/><br
/><strong>Support materials</strong><br
/>There is a comprehensive set of online support materials that underpins the practical nature of the course, allowing delegates to explore the academic side of leadership further pre and post programme<br

/>They motivate every single employee to take action and engage them with a compelling mission and vision. They have the assertiveness to drive outcomes and the ability to overcome adversity and resistance. They create a culture of clear accountability. They build relationships that create trust, open dialogue, and full transparency. They make decisions that are based on productivity, not politics.<br

/><br
/><em>Understanding influences on monitoring and evaluation strategy</em><br
/>A consideration of internal and external influences which drive the project definition and the approach taken towards monitoring<br
/>and evaluation projects.<br
/><br
/><em>Developing a Business Case to support monitoring and evaluation</em><br
/>An in depth consideration as to what should be included in a business case to get approval for monitoring and evaluation projects.<br
/>Financial and non-financial elements are considered. Since many of the benefits identified may be intangible, consideration is given as to how this can be effectively presented in a manner that is appealing to the Project Sponsor.<br
/><br
/><em>Developing a stakeholder management and communication strategy</em><br
/>This session addresses the challenge of understanding and managing the needs and expectations of multiple stakeholders. Consideration is given to methods of identifying and analyzing the stakeholders before determining the most appropriate way of managing and communicating with them throughout the monitoring and evaluation lifecycle.<br
/><br
/><em>Effective requirements gathering for monitoring and evaluation</em><br
/>A consideration of the various techniques available to elicit requirements together with the attributes of a good requirement. Further consideration will be given as to how to manage requirements and ensure requirements are traceable.<br
/><br
/><em>Determining Critical Success Factors and Key Performance Indicators</em><br
/>An evaluation as to what is meant by Critical Success Factors and Key Performance Indicators, how these relate to organization and local objectives and how to ensure a balanced range of measures is achieved.<br
/><br
/><em>Modelling the current and future state</em><br
/>In order to effectively define and communicate the change that will be delivered, a range of models will be considered that help to<br
/>define the current situation and how this will be improved through the monitoring and evaluation project.<br
/><br
/><em>Scope and change management</em><br
/>It is vital that the scope of the project is fully understood and that change is managed so as to avoid this causing a monitoring and<br
/>evaluation project to fail. This session considers scope management techniques available to the practitioner, common causes of<br
/>change and a stable change control process that can be used to manage requests for change.<br
/><br
/><em>Identifying and delivering sustainable impacts</em><br
/>Since the most effective projects are sustainable, consideration is given as to questions that must be asked to determine how sustainable an impact will be. A resource audit is used to look at local capacity and capability and to provide an indication of further support that may be required from the delivery organization.<br
/><br
/><em>Effectively leading a monitoring and evaluation project</em><br
/>Monitoring and evaluation projects require effective leadership. The fourth day starts with a consideration of the attributes of an<br
/>effective leader and leadership theories that can be applied in a practical way to improve project performance.<br
/><br
/><em>Managing a team through the monitoring and evaluation lifecycle</em><br
/>Monitoring and evaluation projects involve a range of people who enable the project to be successful. This session considers how to manage a team effectively, how to get the members to support the change that is being delivered and how to ensure the team is more skilled at the end of the project than at the commencement.<br
/><br
/><em>Creating a learning culture within monitoring and evaluation</em><br
/>Organizations and individuals must commit to learning from conception to closure. This session of the course promotes the benefits of continuous learning and development and methods that can be used to prove this contributes to project success.<p>Cost: 3995 USD</p><p>Duration: 5 Days</p>					]]>				  </description>				  <pubDate>Mon, 29 May 2017 20:39:59 +04</pubDate>				</item> 					</channel></rss>
