- Leading Learning
Leaders are always learning
Smart leaders want their staff to be even smarter
You’re the leader – and setting the pace. You're steadily building your business - and working hard. You're doing the biz on all fronts - but you know that some of your key staff could do with developing their management and leadership skills.
Think of your leadership ability like a lid that determines your own level of effectiveness – and of your staff and business. And the higher the lid of your other leaders, the higher all your staff can go.
Who do you turn to that you can trust them with? Who will understand what your business needs, how to get the best out of your staff - and how to make it feel good and rewarding for them?
At The Leader we understand - we've been there. And we can help you and your team, not just to survive life at work but also to thrive at work – and build a better business.
We will support the development and training of your supervisors and managers – the up and coming leaders of all ages and stages. And we can work with you to create and implement a plan that makes your people better bosses and builds your business. We’ll be blending teaching, coaching, mentoring and guidance, along with preparing tailored individual learning plans and working in group settings.
Learning how to think, feel and act as a leader
For most people the biggest challenge is knowing what a leader is, and how to be one. Helping your staff understand this is the foundation of our work. We also offer Insight Added - a regular e-mail leadership guide providing practical tips on thinking, feeling and acting as a leader.
We promise to work with you when it suits you and your business. Our flexible 24/7 approach gives you the bonus of supporting your staff around their shift patterns.
The best learning happens on the job – but helping people think and reflect on what has been happening day-to-day can’t always wait until the next formal session. So, between sessions we offer phone and messenger chat back-up.
Some of the best leadership training materials in the world
We tailor all our work to your business and your staff, but we also incorporate materials that have been used by millions of people worldwide. As an accredited John Maxwell trainer, Graham will be using materials proven to work across all industries and sectors.
For first-timers
With no previous supervisory experience - it can be a daunting prospect stepping up to that first promotion. How can you support employees and make sure your business is getting the best from them?
Teach them when they are new and impressionable! Investing early in someone's career is well worth it. Being supported and guided to learn what a leader is, can stop a lot of pain for everyone!
For seasoned managers
Making sure that your managers also understand leadership helps your business grow - and takes the strain off you.
Experienced managers know the joys and sorrows of managing people. Helping them use this experience to improve how they work takes time and effort - but can pay huge dividends, for them and your business.
We work with business leaders across west and central Scotland.
We come to you!
