Leadership Development Workshops

OUTLINE OF LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOPS

The following are Leadership Development Workshops which have been delivered to various clients across a range of industries.  All workshops ideally are run over a half day (although we can go more in-depth on certain topics over a full day) with some requiring a small amount of pre-course work.  We can also set post-workshop assignments to help the learner apply what they have learnt to his or her own role back in the workplace.

The workshops can also be linked to a range of qualifications in leadership and management from the ILM (a City and Guilds Group business) or our own Polaris Learning Certificate of Competence.
