Why is this course important right now?

Your ability to collaborate and influence sets you, and those who work with you, apart. If you are a professional or leader from any sector and background who wants to make a positive impact, this course is for you.

During this 4-week course, composed of eight 90-minute virtual workshops and 4 practice labs, you will learn new practices that will motivate, focus and equip you and those around you to create shared Direction, align people & resources and achieve high commitment.

This highly rated course has been running for 5 years face to face. As circumstances have changed, we have adapted this course into a fully virtual yet deeply collaborative learning experience meaning you can now participate from anywhere in the world! The most recent virtual edition was given an overall 5 out of 5 rating by participants.

After completing the course, previous virtual #LIMPACT participants experienced on average a 40% improvement on the course learning areas in influence capability and knowledge compared to pre-course measurements. You will emerge from this experience better equipped to help yourself and the people you work with get results and achieve meaningful impact.

What do we offer? 

Our blended learning approach means that you will actively participate in expert-led virtual workshops twice a week and take advantage of both self-paced and social learning opportunities. 

Sessions are participative, engaging and applied, leveraging expert insight with learning with and from a diverse group of talented peers. Action-learning design is used so you will directly apply practices and give and receive feedback from peers on your own and others’ leadership challenges. You will practice influence and leading, starting from where you are today and advancing tangibly throughout the learning journey.  

What makes this course unique and impactful?

• The virtual course is highly rated (5 out of 5) both overall and for its content. It is based on practices and researched-based frameworks adapted and curated from leading practitioners and leaders
• You will receive a “Leadership and Influencing Executive Certificate” after the completion of the learning journey
• The Key Leadership Challenge (KLC) that runs throughout the course means you will straight away be able to apply what you learn to your work. The KLC anchors your learning in your work/life
• The 4 Practice labs provide immediate and lasting impact. Past participants report productive progress during the course, not just ‘afterwards’
• You will receive a fully personalised Influencing Style Assessment report that brings personal insight
• Your peers will be diverse (nationality, culture, sector, seniority) bringing relevant and innovative views. They will become part of your network, and you will gain access to the GCSP’s global community of thousands of experts and practitioners
