Introduction
This HR Leadership & Strategy: Leading Change, Culture & Performance training course develops the strategic leadership capabilities HR professionals need to influence organisational direction, lead workforce change and improve performance. Effective HR leadership extends beyond managing policies and processes. It requires an understanding of business priorities, workforce capabilities, organisational culture and the people-related factors that determine whether strategic change succeeds.
The training course connects HR strategy with leadership, organisational change, culture and performance. Participants will learn how to translate business priorities into human capital requirements, build credible HR strategies and strengthen HR’s contribution to organisational decision-making. They will examine approaches to leading change, shaping culture, improving employee engagement and establishing meaningful performance measures. The training course concludes by integrating these areas into an HR leadership agenda that supports organisational capability, accountability and sustainable performance.
