Your Journey

Your journey takes you through some of the hard evidence relating to workplace innovation and shows why it is relevant to your organisation’s values, vision and strategic priorities. It introduces you to workplace practices known to achieve both high performance and great places to work, and offers you an abundance of inspiring examples from companies across Europe.

With support from our expert team, you’ll use your newly-acquired knowledge and insights to stimulate and absorb awareness of the need for change in your organisation, to engage others in visioning and action planning, and to empower others to innovate and improve the business. But the real prize is to create a sustainable momentum of employee-driven change throughout the organisation, learning from experience through continuous feedback and reflection, and making sure that innovation and improvement eventually becomes part of everybody’s ‘day job’.

On successful completion of your Programme, you will:

  • Gain the experience of driving sustainable change as a successful transformational leader in your organisation

  • Gain accreditation as a Workplace Innovation Change Leader as well as an ILM (Institute for Leadership and Management) Level 5 Award in Leadership and Management, based on the practical experiences you acquire as a Change Leader, with continual assessment and no final assignment.

Read the reviews

The Programme re-enforced that you have to go back to change all the time to embed it and make sure it’s taking root, continues and doesn’t just peter out. It’s not just the fanfare at the beginning it’s the ongoing hard work to keep coaxing it down the road. It’s given me increased confidence around being able to make things change and happen. It exceeded all expectations and was enjoyable and rewarding. Invaluable facilitation of cultural change.
