The ability to attract and retain higher-quality individuals than competitor organisations is increasingly a strategic priority for business.

In conjunction, talented individuals are demanding more impactful CSR activities.

CAN’s unique leadership development programme, CAN Engage, takes your talented executives out of their comfort zone and stretches their capabilities by placing them to work in new and unfamiliar environments on high-impact social business projects within a social organisation.

You will see an impact on both their personal development and business impact. They will see the impact they make to the social organisation and its social dependants.

Challenges they face:

• Project leadership and management
• Strategic thinking and leadership
• Influencing, negotiation and risk taking
• Working within a different values structure
• Analytical skill
• Customer focus
• Building internal networks for expertise, resource and learning
• Valuing flexibility and adaptability

Comments from participants

“This is an exercise in personal leadership. How to respond to an unfamiliar environment. I am back at work with refreshed vigour.”

“It was totally different and definitely a step outside of my comfort zone.”

“The CSR project is the most important part of the development programme because.....it’s a real project with a real team.”

How this is to be achieved is a growing preoccupation for chief executives and senior managers, and those responsible for the design and delivery of HR strategies that proactively support the needs of the business.
