This one day programme has been designed
by the Workplace Training Company around the proven leadership
experience of Kym Murphy.
Kym recently retired as one of the Ford Motor
Company’s key fixit leaders in the Asia Pacific region.
He led the major Employee Involvement Programme
for Ford Australia that was instrumental in ensuring manufacturing
operations remained in the country and was responsible for
the commissioning of the 500 employee Wiri Alloy Wheel Plant
in Auckland, New Zealand.
The programme Kym has designed looks to assist
younger managers develop leadership skills in the transition
into senior management.
“Many of our younger managers want
to inspire leadership but struggle with the pressures of line
management. There are some transition skills they can learn
that will build their own confidence and that of their employees.”
Passing the Baton is the result. The programme
targets key lessons from Kym’s experience with both
large and small workforces and his down to earth approach
and humor make the programme a memorable day.

Women leaders
“There is a tendency among males to emphasis
strength and action approaches to leadership when in fact
listening and empathy form a much stronger basis for long
term leadership success – women tend to have these qualities
in abundance.”
Passing the Baton Only A Start
“We have designed Passing the Baton as a one
day introduction to leadership for younger managers and aspiring
leaders. Our aim is not to focus on some of the more corporate
requirements of leadership but rather on some of the fundamental
people skills managers need to become leaders."
Leadership in the Community
“Leading in a community context is a good deal
tougher than in a work environment. At work the reason you
are there has been effectively decided by the shareholders
of the business. In the community, you are the one that has
to make the ‘I believe’ commitment to a programme
or idea. Once you have committed yourself, you use the same
skill sets you would engage when at work.”
Leading in a Service Environment
“Leadership skills are directly transferable
across business units and proven leaders in a service environment
can successfully lead in almost any situation. It goes without
saying that the best leaders also have an intimate knowledge
of their business operation."
