The workshop aimed at providing managers with insights into time
trusted methods of personal development, while providing attendees with
knowledge on how to progress their careers in to the next level through
effective leadership. The session saw attendees from companies such as
John Keells, Dialog Axiata, Mobitel, Airtel, Millennium IT, Iron One
Technologies, Lanka Bell, Finlays, Kelani Valley Plantations,
Metropolitan and Sierra Global.
The workshop's success was further established when it recorded an
outstanding overall satisfaction of 100 percent with 79 percent
indicating extreme satisfaction in an anonymous post-course survey among
the participants. Proceeds from the session were donated to the
Biodiversity and Elephant Conservation Trust. “This generous donation
will be used to fund the school awareness programme for rural schools”
said trustee Jayantha Jayewardene.
“Unless one knows where they are going themselves, it is hard for
them to lead others. In this increasingly competitive world, all
managers need to be great leaders. I felt that the participants gained
an enormous amount of knowledge and I was able to share with the group
my experiences which helped me in my own career” said Vijay Watson
speaking on the session.
