This new open programme launching in September 2026 is designed specifically for the latter.
It’s not a first-step management course. It’s not about theory. And it’s not about ticking competency boxes. It’s for:
- Leaders who already manage managers
- Senior professionals pivotal to strategic delivery
- Individuals who’ve completed management development before
- High-impact people ready for the next level
These leaders don’t need to be told what good leadership looks like.
They need the space, structure, and support to become the next version of themselves.
A Different Kind of Leadership Development
Traditional programmes often focus on content delivery. This one focuses on transformation and the design is intentionally:
- Self-directed
- Coaching-facilitated
- Peer-group-supported
Participants aren’t passive recipients of information. They are active architects of their own development journey.
How It Works
The programme begins with a whole-group orientation session led by the Programme Director (delivered via Zoom or Teams). From there, development becomes deeply personal.
1. 180 Evaluation + 1:1 Coaching
Each participant completes a 180-degree evaluation and attends a one-hour coaching session.
The purpose? To see themselves as others experience them, creating clarity, focus, and a grounded starting point for growth.
2. The Compass Model
The programme is structured around four “compass quadrants,” taken one at a time. Each quadrant includes:
- 6 weeks of self-guided learning
- Coaching support
- Webinars
- A collaborative learning community
After each six-week module, participants move into a…
3. Two-Week “Sprint Forward”
This is where theory becomes action. The sprint focuses on:
- Real-world application
- Immediate behavioural change
- Measurable organisational impact
4. Learning in Action
Each quadrant explores four key aspects of leadership. Every aspect includes:
- A concise 15-minute video overview
- Curated learning materials
- Three practical application activities
- Structured reflection
- Peer insight sharing
Participants don’t just absorb knowledge. They apply, test, refine, and integrate it.
5. Reflection and Coaching Checkpoints
At the end of each quadrant:
- A 30-minute one-to-one coaching session
- A one-hour whole-group “Connect & Reflect” session
These facilitated sessions ensure momentum, accountability, and alignment.
Why This Matters
Senior leaders often say: “I know what I need to do. I just don’t get the space to think.”
This programme helps to creates that space. It bridges:
- Awareness and execution
- Capability and confidence
- Leadership intention and organisational impact
By investing in leaders at this level, organisations strengthen not just performance, but culture, clarity, and long-term resilience.
