Leading for innovation and agility

What makes an organisation agile and how can you embrace more innovative leadership? Our masterclass for senior leaders and managers helps you understand key creative techniques and use them across your teams

Become an agile leader

In surveys of CEOs across the globe, innovation and agility repeatedly appear as both a key ambition and a primary concern for the leadership team. Both can deliver ‘game changing’ benefits, both can be destabilising and unwelcome forces.

At the heart of innovation and agility lies change, experimentation and, by design, some degree of failure – and leaders need to accommodate this.

Course features

Leading for innovation and agility is one-day, ready-to-run masterclass on agile leadership.

Modern organisations have to be quick, responsive and continually reinvent themselves if they are to keep their edge, delight their customers and ultimately survive.
