Overview
"Great leaders get extraordinary things done in organizations by inspiring and motivating others towards a common purpose.” No two leaders are alike. That’s because leadership comes in many different forms: They vary in their management philosophies and have distinct personality quirks. But one idea remains significant –that leadership is unique to each person. Neither science nor formula will produce a leader; leadership is a matter of character.
Leaders are the single most important ingredient in building an engaged, high-performance workforce. All too often these leaders are ill-prepared for their critical new roles. Even when organizations put programs into place to enhance leadership skills, the impact is diluted because of a lack of organizational support. This leads to high rates of leadership failure, low employee loyalty, and, ultimately, poor business performance.
This is not a management course. It is distinctly a Personal Leadership program. We believe that leadership is the capacity to influence others to act. Leadership is an "influence process" and processes are observable and "learnable". Leaders groomed through this program would have the ability to build proactive, independent, trusting, proud, involved, respecting and self-sustaining teams or individuals.
Immensely practical and hands-on, this 5-day Personal Leadership workshop is designed to inspire, engage, and help organizational leaders develop the skills needed to meet whatever leadership challenges lie ahead.

Testimonies
“I thought this course would have a lack of guided leadership because it was being held in a classroom, but the trainer shared a lot of experience with us. After it was done, I felt like I had the key skills I could implement in my work. The trainer was very good. I particularly liked the area where we focused on SWOT analysis. It’s very relevant to my work” – Wong Chun Cheong, Assistant Manager, Dragon-I-Restaurant.
“Before attending this course, I thought that ‘leader’ and ‘manager’ were the same, but this training taught me what a leader needs to have is far broader than what a manager has. After it was done, I learned that while practical knowledge was important, the skill is bring people up is more crucial to the organization. The trainer had good knowledge and was very experienced.” – Clarice, Accountant, Dragon-I-Restaurant.
“I was interested in this course before attending. I learned about management tools and felt really well-informed after it was done. The trainer was very good with lots of experience. I particularly liked the part of the course where we focused on ‘disc scoring’.” – Adam Randall, Manager, City Facilities Management Sdn Bhd.
