Key Concept

In times of seemingly relentless turbulence and pressure, the most effective leaders aren’t necessarily ‘doing’ more — but thinking differently.

As organisations face continued volatility, rising complexity and constant escalation, many leaders find themselves working harder only to achieve less clarity, speed and impact. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

In this webinar, Paula Broadbent, Programme Director of Cranfield Executive Development’s General Management Programme, explores how leaders can create calm, focus and flow — and how that can in turn quietly boost performance.

Paula is joined by Scott Dick, General Manager at Breedon Group and a past participant of the General Management Programme, who shares his powerful story on his recent transformational leadership journey and reflects on how the programme influenced his approach, and the productivity impact as well as operational effectiveness in a complex operating environment. Scott also highlights the equally positive change in employee satisfaction and engagement that has occurred since the new approach has been adopted.

Research and theory are clear on the benefits of more human-focused leadership practice, but it is rare to hear case studies so clearly endorsing this with hard evidence.
