The transition from project delivery to people leadership can be one of the most exciting but challenging phases in your career.
Join this course to find out how to become an outstanding KT leader. Learn how to create high-performing teams; how to set objectives, grow your unit and how to manage underperformance all in a KT context. We aim to equip you with the mindset, tools, and strategies to lead with clarity, confidence, and impact.
This two-day course is for people new to or preparing for line management roles in Knowledge Transfer. Attending is a powerful way to help new managers (and their teams) quickly become more effective and productive. It focuses on leadership in a KT context, reducing the need to discover the lessons of leadership the hard way. It supports personal career development, helping managers identify growth areas and prepare for future leadership roles.
The course uses case studies specific to KT environments and draws on the real-world experience of three KT leaders, Dr Jeff Skinner, Sean Fielding and Dr Helena Montiel. All have run successful KT offices and have chaired their national KT Associations and therefore understand the issues likely to be confronted by new KT managers.
This course offers an opportunity to meet likeminded people, share tips and tricks, and dive into different approaches to help you set up and improve KTO processes.

There was ample opportunity to learn from colleagues through the workshop sessions or more formally through speakers either sharing their years of experience or their state of the art research. Well worth attending.

Starting or changing any procedure at a TTO/Institution is challenging and I could not think of anything better than learning with the best.
