The Deliberate Leader

Leaders face several challenges, including managing people, making tough decisions, effective communication, handling change, balancing competing demands, developing a vision and strategy, and building/maintaining trust.

The Deliberate Leadership program is designed specifically to help leaders develop their leadership through awareness, vision, influence, experience and empowerment. The program is ideal for anyone who wants to develop into a better leader for themselves and their team.

Using research-based competencies* that have been rigorously tested, the program is tailored to suit your organisational development needs.

Leader as Coach Program

Why do we need to lead differently? The way we work has changed. Leaders are tired, overworked and they are leading in unchartered waters. Leading remote and hybrid teams is now a normal occurrence, and not an exception. Teams are dispersed, our methods of communication and collaboration have substantially changed, and we are all trying desperately to remain engaged and connected. These changes have created the urgency to now rethink the way we lead. It’s time to look at leadership differently.

Over 2 days of masterclasses, you will develop the skills required to use coaching techniques in your leadership role. The program also includes a one-on-one coaching session, a full digital workbook, your own accountability partner assigned from the group, and your Leader as Coach Plan created specifically for you.  

Lead Deliberately

Now more than ever there is an opportunity for Leaders to adopt the coaching mode in their leadership style. When a leader adopts this, trust, authenticity and connection increase between the leader and their team, at an individual and collective level. This promotes higher performance and better quality relationships in the team.

I had the good fortune of engaging Rita as an executive coach and found her to be not only a terrific sounding board for working through various issues, challenges and opportunities but she had a knack of providing relevant, situation specific tools and insight to assist me in my decision making process. I actually chose Rita because, of those I spoke with, she was the least like me, and this different perspective definitely helped unlock broader thinking on my part.
