An enjoyable and thought-provoking workshop that focuses on core skills (essential but often overlooked) that are needed for success in today’s changing working environment.

It provides an opportunity for delegates to reflect on the strengths (and their own perceptions of weaknesses) they bring to their working life; and on the idea that it is the individual as a whole, not just a person’s job title, that makes a difference.

This course is suitable for: Professional Services, Support & Academic staff
