Tailored Leadership Programmes
Helping leaders and teams to overcome their challenges and meet their goals with tailored programmes made up of training modules and coaching.
Programmes of support tailored to you and your team
Programmes are for leaders, teams and departments that are looking for a longer, deeper journey of development.
Primarily a mix of training modules, both one-to-one and group coaching sessions, and sometimes supplemented with additional recommended activities, Hayley’s leadership programmes are in-depth, sustainable packages of support, tailored to the specific needs and challenges of your team.
A great way to up-level a whole team or department at once, programmes can help to weave a consistent thread of understanding through your team, help to plug skill gaps, and develop the understandings of multiple people.
Hayley’s leadership programmes provide the opportunity for your team to connect and explore critical thinking, planning, collaborative problem solving, and self-reflection, to help you overcome your challenges, innovate, and lead the department forward towards its goals, together.
How Hayley’s leadership programmes are designed
Things start by having a chat with Hayley about the challenges facing your team, the people involved, and your goals. You’ll discuss budget, any relevant staff issues, logistics, timeframe, barriers to development, attaining your team’s support of the training, and the delivery of the programme, which is usually facilitated by Hayley in-house.
Compiling your package of support
Hayley compiles her leadership programmes based on your goals and the factors hindering your team from overcoming your challenges, working with you to select the blend of specific training modules, one-on-one and group coaching, and supplementary activities that will be most effective in transforming your team.
Leaders usually select between 6 and 12 training modules from Hayley’s large and varied range. These base modules range from “Managing conflict” to “Personal branding”, “Building trust and psychological safety”, “Courageous conversations” and beyond. Hayley will help you to select the modules that will help you to reach your goal, whether that be maximising confidence, business growth, increasing sustainability etc, and tailor them to address your unique challenges.
Depending on your needs, you can then add monthly one-to-one and group coaching sessions to your programme of support. Group coaching is the beating heart of Hayley’s leadership programmes, helping teams to support each other, coach each other with compassion and without judgement, problem solve, and find solutions together.
Finally, you will work together with Hayley to select further training elements to create a deeper, more holistic programme. Activities range from professional headshot shoots and personal development workshops when developing confidence is your goal, to guest speaker events and networking opportunities when business growth is your focus.
Hayley will then support you to attain your colleagues support of the programme and deploy internal marketing before kickstarting delivery.
You’ll receive evaluation during and after each session, as well as a final impact report, which quantitatively tracks self-reported levels of improvement in areas such as confidence, ability and knowledge. This report will also feature an impressive depth of feedback which details each participant’s personal outcomes.

Hayley has really helped me navigate into my new role which I was really worried about as I questioned if I was good enough for the role and she gave me the confidence to just go for it. She has enabled me to change the way I manage stressful situations, challenged me to step outside my comfort zone and taught me skills I’ll carry long beyond the leadership course. I now feel more confident, able and equipped with the skills to be a good leader.
I cannot praise Hayley enough with how well this cause has impacted, not only my working life, but also my personal life. My mindset and confidence has changed for the better, and this is being shown and noticed within my work. With every session I have with Hayley I feel like I develop as a shiny new person each time. I am a completely different person to when I first started this cause, which was only September last year! I am so glad I was given this opportunity to be able to develop myself, and I cannot wait to see how much I will have grown by the end of this course. I have just 1 question, Please can we keep Hayley?!
