Navigating Business Change
As organisations across Canterbury look likely to face an extended period of uncertainty and change, there is a growing need to ensure you and your business can thrive through this period. Join us for a half-day session with experts who specialise in helping organisations face challenges and change globally.
Description
It’s increasingly hard being a leader in 2024; the role and tools of leadership have changed markedly. Today’s leaders need to care about their own and others’ wellbeing, create sustainable business practices, be realistic about the future, agile enough to take advantage of all opportunities, ruthless enough to prioritise and communicate to motivate and retain the best staff. - Dr Lucy Hone
[To ensure a diverse range of businesses can benefit from this training, we are limiting attendance to 2 spots per organisation.]
Thanks to the support of our Strategic Partners, Business Canterbury is running its first Navigating Business Change programme to provide business leaders with the opportunity to share their current circumstances, and look at what is ahead of them as opportunities for their business.
This workshop is subsidised by our strategic partners. Normally $599 + GST - we are able to offer this session with world-renowned speakers from $199 + GST for members and $249 + GST for non-members for Early-bird registrants.
This is for you if you’re concerned about how to manage in tough times or change; if you want the key skills to navigate this; what you want to be as a leader and small practical changes you can make to your businesses.
This workshop also includes a follow-up session in November for participants and our Strategic Partners.
