Co-design and delivery of bespoke training programme for Future Leaders in the VCSE sector
In partnership with Space to Thrive, we co-designed a programme of training with 20 Future Leaders from different organisations in the VCSE sector.
The co-design session took place in Manchester. We supported participants to examine their existing skills, knowledge and mindset, and identify what might be holding them back in their journey towards leadership roles and opportunities.
From this, we built a bespoke programme of six training sessions, covering topics like confidence, imposter syndrome, strategic direction, public speaking, and much more.
We also provided an online learning platform, and encouraged participants to share thoughts and ideas between sessions, building networks and enhancing relationships for the future.
There was superb energy and sharing in the room for all of the sessions, and feedback included:
I see leadership skills in everything I do now.
I see that other people here are amazing, and it lets me see my own amazing!
I’m now using Linkedin and really putting myself out more. Sharing, celebrating others and it’s had a real impact. I’m connecting with people that are more senior, and from it I was invited to a Women in Business event that led directly to me getting sponsorship,
I’m delegating more – my team applied for a prize and I was completely hands off.
My confidence has gone up. I put myself forward for more opportunities.
I’m taking more leadership roles at work and ownership of tasks from my manager. And I’m teaching a new colleague.
