You will explore and discuss issues such as judgement of when to use various leadership techniques; building a culture of creativity and innovation; assessing when and how to grow the business; developing a shared purpose, company values and vision that inform recruiting, developing and reward systems, as well as being able to identify potential negative issues that occur in different roles within an entrepreneurial team.
