What is LEAD?
The programme is made up of several elements which run alongside each other throughout the 10 month duration;
- Overnight experiential - the first element of the programme is a 2 day group activity with an overnight stay. This helps members of the cohort get to know each other and helps them start thinking about their current leadership style.
- Masterclasses -10 masterclasses are split into 2 themes, business growth and leadership.
- Coaching - a solutions focussed coaching approach changes how members work with people both inside and outside their organisation.
- Action learning sets - a group of 6-7 cohort members who meet to discuss real business issues resolving them through listening and questioning techniques designed to establish positive actions.
- Shadowing and exchanges - cohort members are partnered for a series of shadowing visits and exchanges. The process begins with a shadowing exercise where members will observe and reflect on the behaviour of their chosen exchange partner in their place of work. This is followed up by a series of exchanges where both members will go into their partner’s business and conduct a mini evaluation project.
- On-line forum - members share what they have learnt in masterclasses and discuss issues from action learning sets. They also have access to podcasts, masterclass presentations and additional reading.
