Program Professional Framework
Leadership, Communication & Interpersonal Skills
Program Overview
Day-to-day leadership succeeds or fails in interpersonal moments: a tense meeting, a request for help, a disagreement between colleagues. This program develops the interpersonal foundation of leadership, covering self-awareness and personal style, building rapport and trust, active listening, assertiveness, giving and receiving feedback, resolving conflict, collaboration and teamwork, and communicating across cultures. Through role plays and behavioural style profiling, participants learn to adapt their approach to different people, a key skill in Gulf workplaces with diverse nationalities, generations and expectations.
