Leadership is a relational practice that is ever evolving. Our Leadership & Goal Attainment course provides a solid framework for learning how relational leadership is not just a theory or a buzzword, but a way of managing through relationship-building to bring out the very best in someone. This course will help you define your “why”, learn ways to set and achieve your goals. While it can be difficult to set truly meaningful and motivational goals, it is one of the most essential steps to success. Even more importantly, setting, working toward and achieving measurable goals is how we all grow personally while contributing to organizational success.
