Lessons Learned

The most important lesson learned from a Strategic Management and Leadership Training Course is to recognize that effective leadership and management requires combining both hard and soft skills. To succeed, leadership and management must evolve as well as not become stagnant. Leaders must be willing to take risks and to stretch and challenge themselves and their teams. Additionally, effective strategic management requires balancing both short and long-term goals to ensure success. Finally, it is important to understand that a leader’s attitude and outlook, in terms of strategy, is just as important as the strategy itself.
