Lead Forward: Developing your organisation’s next generation of leaders
A bespoke leadership programme designed to equip early career managers within your organisation with the skills, behaviours, and mindsets to lead confidently, inspire their teams, and deliver results.
Delivered exclusively to your organisation—on your terms.
Why early career leadership matters
-
Leaders need development
Early-stage leaders gain the practical skills and frameworks to manage themselves, their teams, and their workload more effectively, creating a stronger foundation for long-term success.
-
Rewire manager habits
Through habit-building exercises, managers learn to approach feedback, underperformance, and process improvements in a structured, consistent way, reducing friction and boosting team performance.
-
Remove process hurdles
By identifying and removing activities that don’t add value, leaders can focus on high-impact work, improving efficiency and delivering meaningful outcomes.
How the programme works
-
An initial 1-hour workshop to welcome participants, explain objectives, and introduce the programme’s approach to building effective leaders.
-
Interactive, high-impact sessions where participants explore leadership topics, practice skills through exercises, and develop action plans they can implement immediately (2 × 1 day).
-
After masterclasses, participants join virtual coaching circles to reflect on their learning, discuss successes and challenges, and hold each other accountable to embed behaviours in real-world contexts.
Core leadership topics
-
How does it work?
Each masterclass blends theory with practical application.
Participants practice new behaviours, receive guided feedback, and leave with tools and strategies they can apply immediately within their teams.
This ensures learning is relevant, actionable, and embedded in the organisational context.
-
Masterclass one
Managing Self: Growth Mindset, Conscious Leadership, Leading with Empathy
Managing Others: Courageous Conversations / Feedback
-
Masterclass two
Managing Self: Leading with Empathy – High-Performing Teams
Managing Others: Conflict Management & Resolution, Managing Team Dynamics, Change Management
Sustaining behaviour change
True leadership development happens when learning is applied in real-world contexts. Between masterclasses, participants join virtual structured group coaching conversations where they:
Reflect on successes and challenges
Share practical insights and increase the level of connectedness to topics learnt in masterclasses
Build peer accountability, allyship and support networks
This ensures that new leadership behaviours are embedded, not just learned, creating a lasting impact within your organisation.
