What Are Leadership and Management Programmes?
Bespoke leadership and management programmes are created for a specific company or organisation. They are designed to meet the needs, goals, values, and culture of an organisation, as well as the specific needs of the individuals. Each of our leadership development programmes focus on the practical implementation of knowledge, skills, and behaviours.
We know that no one organisation is the same. Which is why our programmes are designed to develop leaders and managers in areas that matter to your organisation and contribute to the delivery of your organisational objectives.
Why Use Leadership and Management Programmes?
At The Leadership Coaches, we are passionate about the development of leaders and managers within an organisation. Our leadership development programmes support businesses in cultivating talent from within and better prepare employees for future managerial roles.
When implemented effectively, leadership development programmes can provide employees with the skills and tools to lead teams, manage change, and make strategic decisions. Furthermore, leadership and management programmes increase employee engagement, improve organisational performance, and create a team of empowering leaders. This increases motivation and significantly impacts return on investment for the organisation.
In 2018, Sukhy designed, built and delivered Mitra’s Future Leaders Programme for 30 leaders.
This comprehensive 6-month programme consisted of performance and leadership training and one to one and group coaching. Delegate feedback was uniformly positive, many saying it was the best training/coaching they’d had in their careers!
Ian White has been a leadership coach supporting participants on our leadership development programmes for four years, over this time he has supported over 64 Middle and Senior leaders within Secondary Schools and Multi-Academy Trusts. Last year 100% of Ian’s coachees said that working with him had enabled them to connect my values and my behaviour in my work at school and enabled them to build confidence and capacity to face challenges and recover from setbacks.
Zoé facilitated my Initial Leadership Programme 12 months ago and has been my personal leadership coach throughout the programme. Her coaching has been a successful part of my personal development as I have been able to think through objectives to tackle procrastination outside of work, time management and personal goals, achieving much success. Zoé has helped me to self-coach myself and think through targets and goals productively in my day to day life.

We have additionally designed three coaching courses including Developing a Coaching Style, Managing with a Coaching Style, and Leading with a Coaching Style.
Do You Use Any Tools Within Leadership and Management Programmes?
Yes, we do. Our coaches are all highly skilled in utilising tools that may be required based on the needs of the people or organisation.
We have over 40 different Psychometric tools that we can build into your programme; these are led by the needs of the organisation.
For example, we built a programme with the CoreStrengths® Strengths Deployment Inventory tool, which enables a deep understanding of motives driving individual behaviour.
This tool was most useful because it allowed managers to develop their emotional intelligence, which in turn helped them learn how to engage on a deep level with colleagues, tapping into how to motivate, inspire and engage them, building stronger relationships, and developing trust.

Our Approach
Leadership and management programmes can be thought of as unique training or coaching days that combine to create a programme. Each training or coaching day is essentially a ‘module’ that focuses on specific topics, issues, or requirements that enable the team to work towards and achieve a ‘final’ goal. For example, if you aspire to create teams of empowering leaders, we can design modules specifically for this.
Before designing a programme, we first learn more about the organisation to help you identify your needs. We review many aspects, including the following:
-
Data – this could include feedback from staff surveys, previous course feedback, and trends from focus groups.
-
Gaps – this could include what the organisation needs from the managers and where gaps in knowledge, skills, and behaviours may be.
-
Time and budget – we also review how much time and budget are available to ensure we can design a suitable leadership and management programme.
As and when we understand the overall needs of the business, we can design a programme and start to implement it. We often implement executive coaching interspersed between modular workshops. The reason for this is that with executive coaching, each person has the opportunity to address their own unique objectives and challenges in implementing the learning from the leadership or management development programme.
Throughout the leadership development programme, we constantly review feedback from all involved parties to ensure it has the desired effect. Along the way, we can make any changes necessary to facilitate the ever-changing business climate.
