The Positive Leader: Deep Change and Organizational Transformation (Saudi Arabia)

group of professionals having engaging discussion

Ensure your leadership vision includes a toolkit of positive business practices that deliver extraordinary results and inspires others to achieve their best. 

Do you see what needs to be different in your organization to make it truly great, but the culture, practices, and processes of the organization fight against you? This program will give you new insights, perspectives, and practices to influence the changes needed in the organization's culture. We will also help you tap the latent potential in the people around you and the system in which you work to deliver unprecedented results. To accomplish something new you need to be able to see from a new perspective.

This program will not only help you understand cutting-edge research but will bring you practical experiences to apply these new tools and techniques more effectively, more genuinely and give you the learning agility you need to build the future. You will learn about how other companies have benefited from these experiences, and through dedicated time working on your own current circumstances create a plan to apply what you learn while also getting ideas and insights from fellow participants and coaches from diverse industries, cultures, and roles.

This program has changed my leadership lens and how my values reflect my work. I've learned how to identify my strengths and how to leverage those strengths to be my best and incite change.

I've used the tools I gained over the past year and a half throughout the organization, and during this time, we have realized significant performance improvements. This has been due to several factors, and the tools have been a big part of it.

Management is about solving problems. Leadership is about changing culture.
