Confident & supportive leadership during uncertain times 2025
1.25 CPD Hours
Description
Join our webinar designed for professionals who lead others - even if they don’t see themselves as “leaders”.
In fast-paced, high-stakes industries like law and finance, complexity is the new normal. You may not call yourself a “leader,” but if others look to you for clarity, guidance, or decisions - you’re leading. This session will explore how to show up with calm, confidence, and presence in a world of competing demands and constant change.
Whether you manage a team, coordinate projects, or simply find yourself being looked to for answers, this session is for you.
We’ll explore:
- Why technical solutions often fall short in complex situations
- The essentials of adaptive leadership
- How to build trust, clarity, and resilience in your team
- Practical ways to lead with presence—even when the path ahead is unclear
This is not about having all the answers. It’s about learning to hold space for uncertainty, support others under pressure, and stay grounded in what matters most.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
- Understand the nature of complexity and why traditional problem-solving approaches often fall short in dynamic environments
- Differentiate between technical and adaptive challenges, and recognise which leadership approach is needed
- Apply key principles of adaptive leadership to navigate uncertainty, change, and pressure in team settings
- Strengthen their leadership presence, even without formal authority or a leadership title
- Build psychological safety and trust to support team resilience and engagement
- Use simple, effective tools to regulate stress, stay grounded, and respond rather than react
- Empower others with clarity and confidence, rather than micromanaging or over functioning
