Authentic Leader – Training Summary

The Authentic Leader Development Programme will provide delegates with the tools to better understand their leadership style and how they can become more resilient, transparent and adaptable to support their own and their teams development.

We deliver this unique programme, that has been developed with our sister company and personal development specialists, Springboard Consultancy, as a tailored closed programme as well as an accessible online open programme.

We have two levels of delivery, Level 3 and Level 5. Level 3 has been designed for first time managers, or those in team leader/supervisor roles and focussed more on their own development and the impact they can make on their teams. Level 5 has been designed for more experienced managers that are looking to take on more senior roles, and the course will focus more on strategic elements as they look at how they can influence and execute wider company goals as well as lead larger teams/projects.

To find out more about our open programmes including upcoming starts and prices, you can head over to Springboard’s dedicate web page.

    Authentic Leader Delivery

    On-site Bespoke

    Our On-site Bespoke training can adopt virtual training allowing it to remain flexible, however it benefits most by being able to be tailored and relevant to a particular organisation and its needs. It also allows for greater in-depth discussions and explorations of certain topics that are meaningful to the organisation.

    Whether on-site, virtual or a blend of the two, our training programme will speak to the requirements of both the organisation and the specific group of learners. Training Programmes can be combined too, creating a truly adaptable and bespoke business solution.

    This is suitable for larger groups (usually between 6 and 12 delegates) from a particular organisation, whether on the same site or across multiple different sites.

    For individuals and smaller groups why not check out our upcomming open programmes.

    Success Stories

    I was really impressed by the presentations by the team, and I thought they were comfortably the best set of ILM Level 5 presentations that I have seen.

    I was really heartened by the presentations and whole Authentic Leader programme generally.

    We’re keen to provide the opportunity within Diodes for these people to use the skills they’ve developed, as the future leaders of the company. We’re looking forward to running further programmes too.
