Stakeholder Management As your career advances and you make on more senior positions, your internal network and the support of others becomes critical to your success. Active and deliberate stakeholder management is imperative to lead with impact among the peer group and with superiors, because leading in this context is from a position of influence as opposed to authority.

Influencing and Negotiation Whether introducing a new idea, requesting additional headcount or seeking increased project budgets, the need to influence and negotiate is very much part of everyday corporate life. Alignment cannot be taken for granted given people’s different needs, goals and ambitions. Knowing how to be impactful with superiors, peers and teams is indispensable to keep business priorities moving forward.

Life Balance Having a balanced life is to prioritise what is truly important. It means having the courage to make tough choices, set boundaries and take control, without apology or guilt. When life is balanced, we feel content with ourselves and the decisions we make. We are happier, healthier, better engaged and more resilient to stress.

Personal Efficiency and Effectiveness Demands on our time are now greater than ever, which is why prioritisation has become an essential leadership skill. Only by being organised, self-disciplined and in control of the workload is it possible to manage time, priorities, effectively lead others, keep commitments to colleagues and clients and meet deadlines.
