Leadership Development Programmes

What Do Great Leaders Do?

They provide a place for us to grow, open career doors for us, defended us when we needed it, recognised and rewarded us, developed us as leaders, inspired us to stretch higher, led by example, told us our work mattered and forgave us when we made mistakes.

Our leadership development programme, focusses on 3 core elements, who I am – your leader DNA, how think, speak, listen and act, what I do – the core systems you are responsible for and their outcomes, and finally our team, how you interact, motivate, lead and manage your teams. ​

​Our leadership development programmes are based around the four core skills of instruct, mentor, coach and delegate all centred around a compelling Enterprise Excellence Journey and develop the types of leaders that people remember.​

​Our Leadership Development Programmes have helped thousands of Leaders from all around the world, in multiple languages, develop and grow their ability to inspire, engage and motivate their people.

Structure

We have developed an organisational diagnostic and individual competency framework that enables us to assess what skills are required to deliver future strategy and what current skills currently exist. This allows us to prepare a Leadership Transformation Roadmap and customise courses and interventions to deliver the change required.​

​We have partnered with internationally recognised organisations as show to enable us to provide best in class thinking and techniques, when delivering our Leadership Programmes.​

​Accreditation can be delivered via Cardiff University and the Lean Competency System or via the University of Utah and the Shingo Institute.​

​Our team assess your current and future organisational needs to devise training and coaching programmes, and create bespoke solutions.​

​Solutions are based around three levels:​

• ​How you develop a leadership approach​
• How you sustain optimal leadership​
• How you accelerate your leadership to the next level

Levels

Our programmes follow the four step format of assess, develop, stabilise and accelerate. Interventions are customised based on maturity level of the Leadership team and where they wish to progress to next.

Leadership Development Programmes can take two distinct routes:

A Learning led approach- Leaders are assessed against a competency framework, taught best practice, practice their skills, are coached and reflect on their development, before seeking accreditation to pre set University standards. The S A Partners Leadership Academy.

A System led approach –Leaders work alongside a consultant/coach who helps them develop their strategy deployment process, meeting structures and governance processes, and coaches them in how to operate at their optimum with this process. The S A Partners Acoustic Management System.
