LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

Drive change through our immersive leadership programmes to inspire personal development, challenge mindsets and encourage learning.

Our programmes are designed to consider your specific purpose, goals and target audience every step of the way. Whether it’s a women’s development programme or another target audience, we will partner with you to design and deliver a high-impact programme that delivers your talent, development, DE&I strategy.

All programmes are co-created and tailored to your audience’s needs, delivered by our specialist team of facilitators and supported by our speaker academy. Together this offers inspiring and thought-provoking content, ongoing support and true integration of the learnings.

Participants could be first-time managers, at board level or everywhere in between, depending on your organisation’s requirements.

Our programme delivery includes:

Showcase and preparation

We will present the programme to your audiences to secure buy-in and inspire colleagues to participate. Before the programme starts, participants will work through a storytelling preparation exercise to help with self-reflection and support the group to build rapport.

Communication

Your dedicated client partner will support you to determine clear learning objectives, communicate all event briefings, as well as managing communications to Line Managers and other stakeholders to ensure programme success.

Additional programme components

One-to-one coaching
Incorporating individual coaching and personalised support into a programme helps participants to integrate learning from the immersive group events and supports individuals to take further action.

Sponsorship pairings

A sponsorship element to the programme offers participants access to opportunities, networks and ideas beyond their current thinking. In a reciprocal relationship, sponsors are encouraged to expand and challenge their thinking around inclusion, development and talent.
