INTRODUCTION
“Be flexible like trees; when the wind blows bend, but do not break.” - Matshona Dhliwayo
The Oxford Adaptive Leadership training course is a critical skill set for anyone looking to drive change in an increasingly complex world of conflicting demands and constantly changing priorities. Adaptive leadership uses practices and strategies designed to accomplish significant change and develop the sustainability required in challenging, competitive, and complex environments.
