Leaders
Unlock the potential and inspire greatness in leaders at every level
Great leaders are continually learning and growing, as well as inspiring others within their organisation.
How can you impact your leaders and support those growing into leadership? By working with experts who understand
the challenges - and amazing opportunities - that come with leadership.
We keep up-to-date with leadership ideas and practices so your leaders are equipped to blaze trails now and in the future.
Our holistic approach develops and strengthens leadership for individuals, teams and at the organisational level.
Let’s work together to unlock leadership potential and make a real impact.
Kickstart to Leadership
Aimed at new or aspiring leaders, this programme does exactly what its name suggests; kickstarting a vision and inspiring participants to explore what good leadership is, and ways to bring out the best in themselves and others.
We offer Kickstart either as a two-day, face-to-face programme or as four half-day modules online.
Click here for details of up and coming public Kickstart programmes, or contact us to schedule an in-house Kickstart for your emerging leaders.
Leadership assessments
An assessment can stand alone or be part of a larger programme. Assessments are effective for giving an individual feedback and a chance to reflect on the impact their leadership. Then, we work together to maximise potential outcomes and move forward.
Leadership coaching
Leaders need to be nurtured and replenished. One-on-one coaching allows leaders to explore their issues, work through challenges and take action to move forward.
Coaching helps emerging leaders recognise the barriers to progress in a supportive, affirming way. Coaching helps established leaders continue to grow, and helps burnt-out leaders reclaim their sense of purpose.
Our coaching is challenging, relevant and brings about shifts in thinking and behaviour.
Leadership frameworks
Work with us to develop an organisation-wide leadership framework. This can include behaviours, competencies and development pathways.
Women's leadership development
Sticky floors, labyrinths, concrete ceilings, the double bind and bias are just some of the reasons women struggle to reach leadership positions.
Work with us to unravel the complex interplay of systems, attitudes and behaviours that create challenges for women leaders. Then work with us to develop leadership strategies for women and allow them to set their own agendas.
