Mark Donovan’s High Performance Leadership Programme

Mark Donovan & Associates Limited

‘helping leaders keep their word and do what they say they’ll do’  

“Of all the courses, training and development that I’ve done in the last 30 years, this programme was the most relevant and interesting. But most importantly it had an immediate impact on my productivity, my motivation, my creativity and my confidence”, feedback from a programme participant.

If you are ready to transform yourself and take your career to a new level, ready to lead and contribute in a whole new way. This is the programme for you.

Aim of the programme

 

In today’s fast changing business world, simply working harder will not be enough. Relying solely on your functional skills and expertise will no longer be enough. Even accumulating more years of experience will not be enough.

I’m going to provide a programme which will be high-energy, candid, practical and inspirational in four key areas:

1. Personal Best: how to magnify your strengths and reach new levels of confidence
2. Interpersonal Best: how to deal more effectively with conflict and sharpen your influence
3. Professional Best: how to polish your image and increase your appeal to customers, staff and other leaders
4. Big Stretch:  how to change through personal accountability, discipline, and resolve.

This programme will

 

1. Transform you from being a ‘competent’ employee / manager / business owner to a sought after, difficult to replace talent within your business
2. Give you the tools to do your job more effectively and accomplish more with less stress
3. Discover hidden opportunities to grow, get promoted and achieve more within your organisation
4. Help your company (and you) survive and prosper in fast changing times
5. Master new ways of working to overcome obstacles and produce more effective results
6. Improve the value-added contribution of your team or department
7. Maximise your productivity on a daily basis: develop an attitude of ‘healthy selfishness’
8. Develop a powerful personal Brand
9. Build Resolve- this is more than accountability and discipline. It is that set of learnable skills and behaviours which provide for growth, sustained improvement, and acceleration
10. Return to work with a dynamic, exciting and new performance skills tool box.
