CPD Course - Measuring Performance: How to Drive Your Team's Success

Leadership

Is a leader the same as a manager? What’s the difference? How should you decide what leadership approach or style to use? Does it matter?

Well, an appropriate leadership style will inspire and motivate others resulting in the achievement of the goals of the team and ultimately those of the organisation. But it isn’t a once and for all decision. Various events or circumstances will require you to change the approach you use in order to stay effective.

If this is all starting to sound very confusing, don’t worry, you’ve come to the right place!
