Details

Many improvement initiatives fail or fizzle out. Invariably that is caused by a combination of problems many of which are related to the engagement of people and the shaping of an appropriate organisational culture. The success of any improvement programme places unique pressures on the leadership teams of organisations and this workshop focuses on how leaders and leadership teams can prepare their organisation for improvement and then create the right environment and culture to enable them to lead improvement programmes and achieve success.

The workshop delivers understanding of the important issues affecting organisational culture within organisations that will enable them to achieve the improvements they wish to drive forward and shows that leadership plays a key role in this process at all levels in the organisation. The selection, development and nurturing of those who will facilitate and lead change is described with reference to a number of real-life project successes and failures.

  • An understanding of improvement and improvement programmes 
  • How organisational culture is formed, shaped and changed
