Participants will learn about their own key drivers and acquire techniques and tools for self-development, building self-confidence and self-efficacy, and creating a positive, productive and safe working environment.
Acquired competences Upon completion of the course, students will have a comprehensive understanding of the theoretical foundations of human resource management and motivation theories, with a focus on historical development. They will understand the conditions, contexts and relationships that influence the management and development of employees in organisations. Students acquire practical knowledge in areas such as competency models, performance measurement, change management, career management, talent management and modern methods of employee and team development.

Graduates of the course will be familiar with the tools for identifying and developing talent and will be able to apply them practically.
