Get Empowered with Critical Leadership Skills that Drive Change

Global corporations in the 21st century are complex and a volatile mix of cultures, processes and people from diverse backgrounds. As complexity increases, it becomes paramount to have effective managers who have strong knowledge of people, change, processes and possess skills to manage problems in innovative ways.

However, it is known that most change initiatives fail to achieve their desired objectives. One of the reasons for the failure is a lack of skills among managers driving the change. While training their managers, organizations usually consider leadership development and developing skills for managing change as separate challenges. Although most organizations train for leadership development, training for managing change is not given due importance. Also, most of these training is focused on senior managers than middle managers. We strongly believe that if change programs are to succeed, there have to be able managers at each level with the know-how of leadership and change management concepts, tools and techniques. Hence, XLRI leadership development and change management training should ideally go hand-in-hand if organizations want to be more effective. Trained managers also have a better chance of career advancement as they are more successful than others in handling managerial tasks and in managing change.

This program from XLRI will offer insight into theories and application of leadership and change management with an emphasis on learning knowledge, skills and values. The program intends to be participative with a lot of reflections/assessments into one’s own style of leadership and change management, thus, providing opportunities to identify specific areas of improvement.
