<p>A question of trust. Leadership implies followership. And that means trust. Because who's going to follow a leader they don't trust?</p><p>This programme takes a values-driven approach to leadership. It gets current and aspiring leaders to hold up the mirror to themselves and to see their reflections as leaders of people. It asks them whether what they see justifies their view of themselves as leaders. It helps them understand just what it takes to be an effective leader.</p><p>And it does so in a highly practical, constructive manner. It helps the course participants to truly understand the core skills of effective leadership. It focuses on the difference between leadership and management, defining what high performing teams do and how they do it. It helps people to see their teams from different perspectives, allowing them to adapt their styles to maximise team outputs. And it explores concepts such as emotional intelligence, authentic leadership and the RAIV approach (relationships-achievement-independence-vocation) to help explore underlying values and use them to drive effective leadership. Because what worth do our values have unless we put them into practice?</p>The course will help you:<br />• Appreciate the key skills a leader needs to be effective<br />• Understand what the organisation expects of you as a leader<br />• Recognise your leadership style and the impact it has on others<br />• Consider your role models - who inspires you?<br />• See leadership from the 'followers' perspective - how do you like to be led?<br />• Discover what holds you back - limiting beliefs<br />• Examine your core values -do they support your ambition?<br />• Explore the concept of Emotional Intelligence - how do we manage ourselves?<br />• Discover how to lead through change<br />• Explore the concept of 'Authentic Leadership' - consider how it can work for you<br />• Practice some of the skills essential to motivating and influencing for success<br />• Use the RAIV approach to generating enthusiasm and commitment<br />• Plan how best to 'walk the leadership talk' - in your role, in your organisation<p>Above all, this course will help you put theory into practice, values into actions, in a mature, considered, effective way.</p><section>

Creating effective specifications (In-House)

<p>This is not a single course but a set of menu options from which you can 'pick and mix' to create a draft programme yourself, as a discussion document which we can then fine-tune with you. For a day's training course, simply consider your objectives, select six hours' worth of modules and let us do the fine-tuning so that you get the best possible training result.</p>Consider your objectives carefully for maximum benefit from the course. Is the training for new or experienced credit control staff? Are there specific issues to be addressed within your particular sector (eg, housing, education, utilities, etc)? Do your staff need to know more about the legal issues? Or would a practical demonstration of effective telephone tactics be more useful to them?<section>
                    <h3>Menu</h3>Rather than a generic course outline, the expert trainer has prepared a training 'menu' from which you can select those topics of most relevance to your organisation.

Credit control training 'menu' (In-House)

Course Aim
This course will provide those involved in raising cyber awareness for their organisations with a detailed overview of the nature and dynamics of cyber-space in terms of its impact upon personal and corporate security and reputation and how that impact can best be mitigated.
Who Should Attend
This course is aimed at a wide range of people since everyone at both a personal, government or business level are impacted by the connectivity of cyber-space to their daily lives. Thus, whilst it will be of specific relevance to any organisation for whom security issues caused or facilitated by staff members, it will be relevant for anybody who connects at any level to the cyber world. Thus, it would be of value to those working in law enforcement, Government, Private Sector and Education.
Course Objectives
This course aims to increase and enhance delegates’ understanding of the various cyber threats which impact upon them and the organisations, sectors and regions in which they operate and provide them with the tools necessary to mitigate those threats at both a personal and organisational level. It assumes no prior knowledge of the subject but ensures through a high level of interactivity that delegates with any level of experience in the field will be able share and receive the collective knowledge of the group.
Course Outline
Technological threat environment including the centrality of computer systems and devices, data loss and critical infrastructure disruption
The information threat environment, including the dangers posed by social engineering (such as the systematic targeting of the users of social networks) and the introduction of mitigating behaviour regarding control of images posted online, the setting of appropriate privacy settings and the avoidance of the placement of personal details, particularly location, on the internet
The Internet as a cyber target, market and facilitator of crime including the organised crime market in information, identity theft including through malware attacks, cyber-dependent crime underpinned by Crime as a Service (CaaS) such as the use of malware (malicious software), cryptoware (e.g. ransomware) and consideration of the and Dark Web (i.e. illicit commodities sold through illegitimate means)
Cyber-bullying in terms of its nature, characteristics and impact (from loss of sleep to low self-esteem and in some cases suicide), mitigation (from simply not responding to contacting the Internet Service Provider, School authorities or the police), regulation and legislation 
Cyber-Terrorism including the use of the internet (principally social media platforms) for recruitment, propaganda, communication and movement of finances
The nature and impact of digital disintegration whereby an increasing number of devices are connected online and an increasing number of complex transactions occur on those devices increasing the risk to the devices’ owners
Phishing attacks and how to recognise and respond to a common but potentially devastating security risk

Within the basic four colour energies are contained two sets of opposites.
Underlying each pair of opposites there is a TENSION.
This tension acts like a force, just like gravity. You cannot see it, you cannot hear it or touch it with your hands. You will, however, experience the impact of the tension.
We each make a choice in how we perceive this tension. We can choose to be proactive and use this tension to create win/win outcomes. We can choose to be reactive and disconnect from the energy viewing it as a negative.
The choice we make determines our results.
It is important to remember, we make our own choice. The person who represents your opposite energy is not responsible for your choice.
When you’re proactive in engaging with this tension you achieve successful dynamics. Become reactive with this tension and you will experience dysfunctional dynamics.

The Opposite Colour Energies
Blue & Yellow are Opposite Colours
The tension between Blue energy & Yellow energy is based around IDEAS and PROCESSES.
Red & Green are Opposite Colours
The tension between Red energy & Green energy is based around TASKS and PEOPLE.
