Awareness and Confidence for Effective Leadership

Discover how looking inwards can help you become a better leader

On this course, you’ll explore the Savoir-Relier methodology, a new approach to leadership development.

As a current or aspiring leader, you’ll ask questions and reflect on your own self, in order to better understand who you are and how you can lead others.

Under the guidance of Professor Valerie Gauthier, you’ll increase your self-awareness through self-reflection and introspection, and grow your understanding of yourself through a unique exercise called the SOLO.

Learn how leadership development is linked to self-awareness

To grow as a leader, it is vital to first understand yourself and your own perspective.

Through her research Professor Gauthier brings you specific questions that unlock your inner self with sincerity and lucidity.
