In-house Programme
Back to Commissioned ProgrammesLeadership, Life and Learning
For managers and leaders to deepen understanding of the changing nature of leadership and to develop people, project and systems strategies.
Who for?
Managers and leaders who want to deepen their understanding of the changing nature of leadership and management and to develop people, project and systems strategies relevant to their own context.
Those interested in their understanding being stretched and in exploring new approaches to management and leadership, and achieving a developmental step in their human relations practice.
Benefits
This is not a traditional training programme.
It challenges participants to develop in new ways at many levels.
The most important benefits are those determined by individual managers.
Previous participants have highlighted the following:
- flexibility in aligning managerial response with organisational need
- improved self management and the application of skills within the human dimension of organisational life
- thinking rather than reacting as a way of enhancing strategic practice
- bringing to the fore underused or even unrecognised abilities
- developing the person in practice
- building on established strengths and unlearning unhelpful behaviours.
Programme Elements
The programme will model the process of effective relationship and develop individual and group capacity to manage ambiguity, uncertainty and complexity.
There will be the opportunity to make a diagnosis of self, team and organisation and to determine ‘right’ action, in collaboration with others.
Managing and leading frameworks and approaches relevant to the needs to the individual and group will be covered, with mentoring and peer learning groups as core elements.
The Oasis Approach
Our approach to learning allows you to create a bespoke process to meet the specific needs of the situation you are working within.
The programme is applied, experiential and based in dialogue, focusing on real work life issues.
Participants are encouraged to practise and develop their new approaches and skills in a peer-based learning context.
“Participating in the programme has not only given me the opportunity to develop skills in managing people but also to manage myself. The programme has encouraged me to practise ‘inside out’ learning with excellent support from facilitators and peer learning groups.”
