Leadership development

We design and facilitate a range of bespoke programmes aimed at participants with future leadership potential, right through to executive level. We focus on building capability and confidence to enable leaders to better understand themselves, and to inspire them to be more impactful at work and in their role. We can use our own leadership framework, or we can adapt to fit yours, working with you to define the specific flow that uniquely dovetails with your organisation’s own initiatives and business strategy.

The job of a leader is to be and bring to work the very best version of themselves, every day. This, in turn, is what will enable teams to perform to their full potential; and the organisation to navigate today’s complex terrain with confidence and resilience.

This sounds easy, except that people and organisations can be complex and unpredictable things. Navigating this landscape effectively needs more than just skill and experience. It demands engaged and authentic leaders who can support, inspire and drive their people to perform, whilst remaining resilient and resourceful themselves.

The good news is that great leadership can be learned: by developing self-awareness, deciding which of your preferences to emphasise and which to shrink, learning from experts, researching best practice and role modelling brilliance. Organisations using these techniques are now displaying outstanding leaders who empower performance at every level.

At People Untapped, our programmes, are designed using our extensive experience of how to make learning stick, to ensure sustainability of learning.
