Here’s what our participants say about Take the Lead: Leadership Essentials:
• I think this course helps people understand what a good leader looks like. Speaking to others you learn more about how to become a better leader as we all take tips from each other.
• Lots of great information that would / can help anyone regardless of age or prior experiences. It’s helping me grow and learn more about my work style and how to be better at it.
• The content is really useful and I can easily relate to the examples shared.
The Leadership Diploma

The content and the format have been approved by the Institute of Leadership and Management and received the Institute’s accreditation...
During the programme, our leaders increase their self-awareness as leaders, gain valuable knowledge on the best practices and practice what they’ve learned, sharing their experiences with other leaders from different parts of the business. .
During live workshops, our leaders learn about the key leadership capabilities: communication, change management, self-care, conflict resolution, feedback, time management and others. In addition to group discussions, all delegates are offered 1-1 coaching sessions. .
Here’s what our leaders say about the programme:
• The trainers have a very good dynamic between them. They bring detailed knowledge with solid academic backgrounds and application in day-to-day operations, and together they infuse all that with a broader experience.
• The course was really engaging with topics which I found relevant to my role and daily life. The instructors were knowledgeable and were able to answer questions. The format of the course was good, with exercises, discussion and diagrams. No PowerPoint Presentation which was refreshing.
• Possibility to gain plenty of knowledge and tools. Everything (literally EVERYTHING) will be useful on daily basis in both business and private life.
• It was the first course I’ve been to where I was involved throughout the whole 8hour day. Plus, we were tackling a lot of essential topics which I can use in my job as well as in my personal life, and already I can see where I can apply it at work.
