attitudes


Explanation:
L’atelier de trois jours À la découverte de mon leadership a été conçu dans le but d’explorer davantage le « savoir être » (les attitudes) sans pour autant négliger le « savoir » et le « savoir faire ». Ces trois dimensions de l’apprentissage sont interdépendantes et doivent progresser simultanément dans le développement des compétences en gestion.
