"What is leadership? A simple definition is that leadership is the art of motivating a group of people to act towards achieving a common goal". Leaders can be anyone within the organisation, not just those with the title of manager or supervisor.
The Councils Leadership Series provides an opportunity for staff at all levels to come together to enhance their leadership skills and knowledge. The Leadership Series will feature a range of virtual events that will see leading subject experts discussing current issues and provide opportunities to explore how this affects you in your leadership or management role.
