EFFECTIVE LEADERSHIP & MANAGEMENT SKILLS
Great managers aren’t born, they’re trained by Corvit.
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Successful leaders are able to lead, manage and mobilize the talents of the people they work with. The ability to lead and inspire individuals and teams towards optimal performance is a crucial factor in reaching the desired personal and organizational goals.
