Programs: New Leaders Program

Many leaders are promoted into leadership roles without a lot of ongoing support. A lucky minority are invited to experiential classroom style programs with great content, but the impact is lost within months as participants aren’t supported long enough on a day to day basis to really build new skills and break old habits. The New Leaders Program starts with three short workshops to introduce skills and concepts, but its success comes from the ongoing support offered to participants through peer group coaching. It is in these small groups that lasting capability is built.

Content covered includes:

• Defining leadership and the impact of various leadership approaches
• The foundations of compassion, curiosity, listening, questioning, avoiding assumptions and understanding behavioural triggers
• Trust and boundary setting
• The perils of giving advice
• Impactful influencing
• Receiving, soliciting and providing feedback
• Coaching for building capability and empowering others
