 SPECIFIC BENEFITS OF ASTUTE LEADERS ACADEMY

 
At the Taster Eventon 23 September 2008 to mark the launch of the Astute Leaders Academy, we identified 20 specific benefits of joining Astute Leaders Academy in no particular order of priority (it depends on individuals):
 
  • Curiosity and exploration of potential avenues for solutions to issues
  • Tapping into experiences of peers/kindred spirits
  • Hearing the downside of the consequences of business change
  • Enjoying the optimism and success of others and perhaps hoping some of it will rub off
  • Learning new techniques and skills
  • Developing strong friendships and fellowship
  • Building strengths in leadership for oneself and team members
  • Grooming business/product service for better outcome
  • Recognising the shape of a “real” company
  • Finding the balance between managing the business and the business
  • Finding the balance for delegation and succession planning issues
  • Changing aspirations in the business and in employees
  • Opportunity to rehearse decisions with Peers
  • Being able to ask all those questions but confidentially
  • Acknowledging vulnerability
  • Identifying new or mutual areas of interest
  • Discovering efficient ways of dealing with legislation and changing conditions (especially in the current difficult times!)
  • Opportunities for joint ventures and projects
  • Building and strengthening self confidence
  • Recognising and acknowledging differences and benefits (e.g. the preferred thinking frame of mind – “6 Hats” )
 
If any of these strike a chord with your situation as a busy Chief Executive, you will find the Astute Leaders Academy of interest to you
