Aspiring Leaders

This programme is for any member of staff who’s thinking about taking on their first leadership role.

Staff from all job families are invited to apply, the deadline for applications is Tuesday 30 October. Visit Moodle to find out more/apply.

Stepping into Leadership

If you’re in your first leadership role, this programme is for you.

Whether you’re leading a team, a project or a piece of work, we’ll help you develop your foundational leadership skills and improve the way you lead. Equally, if you’ve been a leader for a while, but haven’t had an opportunity for formal leadership development, this is a great place to start.

Staff from all job families are invited to apply, the deadline for applications is Tuesday 30 October. Visit Moodle to find out more/apply.
