Leadership Development Training

Award outcome

Description

Specification Delivery of leadership development training programme for approx. 40 participants who are currently in leadership positions at NCC (at director or head of department level) The key objectives of the programme are to develop core leadership skills (with reference to a defined model of leadership), and to develop the leadership of the NCC in these key areas: From: Transactional relationships with superficial and tactical conversations To: Strong relationships (high trust), high performing teams and transformational conversations From: Limited engagement and advocacy (limited empowerment) To: Higher levels of engagement and advocacy (at all levels) with highly empowered teams From: limited or no regular feedback with limited use of coaching techniques for development To: consistently high-quality feedback (given and received) and consistent use of coaching techniques for development The programme should be delivered face to face and should span approx. 6 months. The proposed delivery schedule is as follows (although we are open to modifying this somewhat based on your guidance of what will best help us to achieve our desired objectives): First session to bring all attendees together to introduce the programme and areas for development. Activities to 'break the ice' - to build a sense of 'one leadership team' and a level of trust that will be essential to open and honest conversations in the subsequent sessions. Four follow-up sessions, with four cohorts of 10 participants (mixed groups in terms of seniority and area of the business) to further build on the core objectives as outlined above at a collective and individual level, to create individual development plans for each participant Closing session to bring all attendees back together, to review progress, lessons learned and to commit to future ways of working together Following the development programme we would like a further 6 sessions of 1:1 coaching for each director (total 10) across a 12 month period, to consolidate their learning from the programme and to focus on individual identified development needs. Please note: we will expect our Directors to coach and support the Heads of Department with their own development plans, rather than using external coaches for the entire participant group of 40. It is a key objective of the programme that all participants are upskilled to have high-quality performance and coaching conversations.
