About the workshop
Ongoing disruption in the Higher Education sector has revolutionised the online learning landscape, reshaping application processes, and refreshing crisis management strategies.

As such, it is essential emerging leaders be better equipped with the appropriate tools to achieve success, develop greater strategic awareness and effectively engage with senior leadership.
Developed specifically for HEW Level 7-9 professionals, this two-day workshop will provide an opportunity to advance your core competencies and skills, and explore the emerging leadership capabilities required for effective HEW Level 7-9 managers and leaders. It will explore the core attributes of successful leadership within the Higher Education environment, unpack practical strategies for leading productive teams, improve decision making, apply strategic management thinking and develop key stakeholder engagement and communication skills.
