Spotlight On… Sessions
The purpose of the following sessions are to revisit a topic that you would have been introduced to during your learner journey and, by doing so, provide you with the space and time to delve and explore the topic in more breadth and depth. The masterclasses are delivered by highly experienced Subject Matter Experts, including Crown Representatives.
Political Insight – Political Insight involves considering the motives, objectives and positions of key stakeholders in order to equip you with the tools to better understand ‘the agenda behind the agenda’. Political Insight allows you to anticipate likely lines of argument, work with conflicting interests and present technical issues to stakeholders that helps to align discussions with desired long-term outcomes.
Another aspect to Political Insight is having an awareness about your and your team’s strengths & preferred engagement styles & how these may impact on perceptions & judgements, especially in pressured environments and situations.

Situations and how to handle them
