Rationale of the Course

Rationale of the Course
Management by objectives, appraisals, objectives, key result areas, key performance indicators, ratings, reviews, performance gaps, leadership competencies, interim reviews, succession planning and many more performance related tools have all been tapped into at one point or another to measure and cultivate higher performance levels. However there still seems to be a gap between the intent of the term ‘Performance Optimisation’ and its actualisation. For employees to go that extra mile and improve their performance, their set of skills and talents need to be recognised and optimised to their full potential. This is where the term ‘Stewardship kicks in.
Stewardship is not just about having motivated and committed employees, but also about taking these same qualities to a higher level. Employees who evolve into ‘Stewards’ are in a better position to ensure that their organisation’s vision is achieved. In doing so, they will take the organisation’s interest to heart and even place it before their own interests. They will accept it as part and parcel of their own psyche and self-image, and will perceive the organisation’s successes as their own.
In order to nurture a ‘Stewardship’ frame of mind in every employee, organisations need to add a key ingredient to their existing strategy for success-the employees’ cumulative strength in its full force. By bringing to the fore all employees’ talents, the human resources muscle of the organisation will grow. During this programme, discussions will be directed towards highlighting stewardship tools that act as the vehicles to enhance stewardship drive within large and small organisations, with the aim of having employees think like entrepreneurs and come to understand that they are constantly in a position to enhance the organisation’s market value through their actions.
