Leading Sustainable Performance
This programme was developed to support the Leadership Group of senior managers within the business become effective agents for change. Highly experiential in its approach the Leading Sustainable Performance programme was designed to provide participants with a shared insight and practical tools to further develop their leadership impact and effectiveness.
Entry to the programme was sponsored by respective Directors who agreed with each Senior Manager:
- 2 Business Improvement objectives
- 2 Personal Development objectives
- 2 People Development objectives
An overarching model for the programme was ‘Challenge, Support and Feedback’ which would drive leadership actions at all levels up, down and across the organisation.
The programme was conducted over two stages. Stage 1 itself comprised two workshops which challenged current perceptions of leadership and provided participants with the insight, tools and techniques to progress their respective objectives. Each workshop incorporated Action Learning Sets to facilitate application to work-based situations. Between workshops each participant had a progress review with their line manager and received coaching from colleagues in their Action Learning Set.
Progression to the final stage of the programme was dependent upon each participant demonstrating to Exec Team Directors the insights they had gained regarding their leadership effectiveness and how they had deployed their learning to progress their individual objectives. The final stage to the programme then focussed on participants working in cross-functional groups on projects tailored to the strategic imperatives of the business.
