Leadership Foundation Programme

Gain an accredited Leadership Qualification in 2 weeks!

Join our Leadership Foundation Programme in May and two weeks later you could gain an ILM Level 5 Award in Leadership and Management, boosting your career and helping you to lead highly effective teams. The Programme blends highly interactive webinars, one-to-one coaching with one of our friendly experts and a great e-learning platform, enabling you to shape both the way you learn and what you learn to reflect your own needs and interests.

What’s more, the Programme doesn’t regurgitate the same old leadership clichés but provides practical insights into how real leaders have transformed teams, departments and entire organisations including case study videos, actionable tools, and other resources you can share with your colleagues. Our one-to-one coaching helps you to translate these lessons into your own role as a manager, emerging leader or member of a senior team. And it’s great fun!

Thank you for your interest in our Foundation Programme. If you want to develop your abilities as a leader driving really positive change forward in your organisation, then you’ve come to the right place!

I’ve spent most of the last thirty years helping people create high performing workplaces that are also great places to work, where people realise their full potential. We call this ‘Workplace Innovation’ – a concept we created with our European partners – and are proud that it has become a powerful movement of business leaders stretching across the world, and recognised by governments in a growing number of countries. We’re proud too of our great team, who share the passion for making Workplace Innovation happen!
