Vodafone - Leadership Skills Training

Challenge: Vodafone – head of enterprise marketing
Elaine was initially offered her current role on an interim basis and recognised that she needed to prove that she had the competence and confidence to succeed in this high-profile position.

“My new line manager made it clear that whilst he believed I had the skills needed for the role, I needed to demonstrate this to others. To gain the confidence to go along with my abilities, particularly in situations where I needed to convince and influence others through presentations and discussions.”

Solution: The Aziz Corporation

Elaine took part in eight half-day sessions with The Aziz Corporation, each tailored to her own specific needs. The tutorials complemented one another and focused upon areas such as voice development and image, through to stress management and influencing techniques. Amongst them, Elaine found the sessions on voice development, influencing others and cultivating a business image to be particularly useful.

Benefits: “I have ‘grown into’ my new role…”
Following her training, Elaine has received positive feedback from her peers and has been able to help others in her team by using the lessons she learned with The Aziz Corporation.

“My colleagues have commented that I have ‘grown into’ my new role. I am aware of the building blocks which have gone into this transformation, whilst those around me see only the finished product. My self-awareness is heightened and I feel I have a toolkit of
reference with which I can approach new situations with confidence.”
