Leadership and management  development

Impactful leadership and management development

Great leaders aren’t born, they are nurtured. We help people become the best leaders they can be.

Leaders and managers are critical to your organisation; they are expected to drive change, get results and build thriving teams. It is at this level where there has been a significant shift in roles and responsibilities. Leaders are expected to think and act swiftly, empower their people and simultaneously deliver value for the organisation, often within a constantly changing context.

Targeted development programmes at all levels

We align our programmes to your organisational strategy and change agenda. We help your leaders to develop the necessary strategic skills, influence and impact needed to successfully execute your strategy.

Even with great leaders in place, we believe that it’s not just your senior leadership team who needs to be developed. The managers are the ones who are putting in the day-to-day implementation of your strategy and so you need to ensure that they also have the support they need. Helping them to establish a clear direction for their team, as well as manage priorities and teams is essential to making the vision a reality.

Our leadership and management development programmes are designed to achieve long lasting behavioural change to deliver exceptional results. Our truly bespoke programmes will meet your individual requirements based on psychological insight, best practice and practical, commercial orientation in the market to develop exceptional and impactful leaders.

Our goal

We will work with you to:

  • Set your objectives and define what success looks like for your leaders and for your organisation
  • Build a leadership and management development framework
  • Diagnose current leadership and management capabilities, define strengths and development gaps
  • Create the best learning and development experience for your leaders and managers
  • Validate the programme by measuring success, the impact of learning and tracking ongoing progress

Our learning and development programmes combine the best in class training programmes with experiential learning based on business-specific simulations. We are convinced that learning should be fun, so our highly interactive sessions produce learning that is gained from doing, listening, touching – and sometimes even tasting!

What we offer

Your leaders of today might not necessarily be the leaders of tomorrow. To ensure your company’s continued and future success you need to invest in developing and accelerating your next generation of leaders.

People Business will help you to identify and develop the right leaders of tomorrow by building a succession management strategy and process.

We will work with you to:

  • Translate objectives and articulate the required skills, experiences, knowledge, values, behaviours and personal attributes your future leaders need to be successful
  • Identify talent potential internally and indicate external resources needs where talent is not immediately available
  • Diagnose leadership readiness
  • Accelerate development and fast track your high potential
  • Measure impact and success

Why choose us for your management development?

At People Business we don’t believe in a ‘one size fits all’ approach – this philosophy has been at the core of our business for over 20 years. We begin each new engagement by looking at what’s working, what makes you and your business unique and your ambitions for the future.
