Overview
Successful leaders not only understand their strengths and weaknesses, but they also use this knowledge together with reflection, evaluation, and ultimately action to develop personally and professionally. As organisations become increasingly complex, teams diversify, and workplace practices change, leaders need to build resilience within themselves and others. Begin your self-awareness journey to develop your leadership skills and fulfil your human potential.
