Group Leadership Training Courses
Developing thriving, compassionate, empathetic teams who overcome their challenges and drive their organisation towards its goal.
Courses tailored to your team’s goals
Is your team struggling to overcome a particular challenge?
Do they have a blindspot or skills gap holding them back?
Are you looking for some learning and development to transform your team’s capabilities?
Compassionate Leaders’ leadership training courses are for groups of between 6 and 20 employees, and are tailored to the unique challenges facing your team and the gaps in skills and understanding hindering them from achieving your departmental or organisational goals.
What begin as base modules developed to address the challenges Hayley has helped leaders, teams, departments and organisations to overcome over the last decade and a half, are then tailored to directly and impactfully address those challenges facing your team, and the goals they are striving towards.
Leadership training courses can help to connect and align your team, help them to develop new skills and behaviours, and provide them with the tools to overcome their challenges, and drive your department or organisation towards its goals.
What do leadership training courses look like?
Compassionate Leaders’ courses play a pivotal role in her leadership programmes, but are a highly effective standalone solution for organisations with smaller budgets, or those with in-house leadership programmes requiring additional or more conclusive training in certain areas.
Things begin with a conversation with Hayley where you’ll explore your team’s goals, challenges, the individuals involved, and select the most relevant courses to tailor to help address the challenges facing these individuals.
Hayley’s leadership training courses are usually delivered in-person, in-house, to groups of 6-20 people, over 1 to 2 days, depending on the complexity and depth of the training.
Delivering the training in-person enables her to communicate on a more meaningful level, make the most impact and deliver the greatest value to your team. However, if your team or organisation is looking for online delivery, or for more brief “taster” or “Lunch and learn” style sessions, Hayley is happy to accommodate you.
Though sessions promote interaction, conversation, self-reflection and more, to ensure the training is effective in weaving a consistent thread of understanding through each person, Hayley creates a relaxed, low-pressure workshop-style environment, where your team can develop together, without fear or judgement.
Your team will be able to measure their progress via evaluation provided by Hayley after each training session. When team members provide their consent, Hayley also reports back to you, the leader, manager or HR professional who sought out the training, so your organisation can measure the success of her leadership training courses, and utilise the newly developed skills of your talent.
Open courses
Are you from an SME without the budget or infrastructure for in-house facilitation but seeking group leadership training courses to help upskill and align your team?
Hayley has run several open courses across the UK, in collaboration with her partners WISH, Women in Social Housing Network, which provided a valuable solution for SMEs in the sector without the means or number of staff for traditional course delivery, to help them overcome common challenges facing all teams.
Open courses, by their nature, are comprehensive but generalised to address common challenges facing most teams and organisations. Be sure to keep a look out for courses on a topic relevant to your team.
