The Leaders in Construction Programme reflects current practice in leadership and allows participants to develop and expand their understanding and their application of leadership skills required in the construction workplace. Through key leadership models, theories and case studies, participants will be encouraged to develop their own leadership approach and consider how this fits with the vision, mission and values within their organisation.

Participants will develop the key behaviours, attributes and skills of successful leaders and build their own levels of confidence in these areas.
