The Future Ready Leadership (FRL) 1 program consists of eight leadership training courses. This program is developed for leaders by providing theory with practical application and experiential learning. This program has been designed for participants to learn and develop different leadership competencies over the entire program.
As the foundation for the participants’ learning during the program, they will assess themselves on thirteen key leadership competencies, competencies required for effective team leadership in any organization. As they progress through the program, they will have several opportunities to assess how the learnings will support enhancement of these leadership competencies.
To support participants’ learning between each course, participants will be required to complete an ‘Apply the Learning’ assignment to reinforce the learnings from the previous session and to prepare them for the upcoming session. In addition, they will be provided with a list of resources, each day, culminating in, by the end of the program, a substantive continuous learning tool.
Finally, participants will participate in a team presentation on a preselected program topic, on the final day, to their leaders.
