Leadership development workshops
At present, our workshops are based in Newcastle, north-east England. We also offer them in other parts of the country, and have delivered them in-house. You will find links here to past and current events. Their outlines, plans, processes and participant's feedback convey a sense of the approaches we have taken. Our leadership training workshops have been run within large public organizations, and for mixed groups of leaders from a variety of organizations. The links here will help you find out more. This page explains the overall process we are using for our 'jazz Leadership workshop. We started in Newcastle in April. The first workshop was received very enthusiastically by the participants. The theme for the first session was: How Leaders affect Performance - for better or worse. The participants in this group decided to spend a significant part of the workshop exoploring the beliefs that inform leadership. We attempted to get to the heart of leadership performance - and found that led naturally to a discussion of the impact of the leader's beliefs about their role. Want to know how the participants shaped the process, the content of the discussion - and how participants responded to the process? Here is a summary of the April workshop, which focused on leadership beliefs. Find the booking form for our next jazzLEADERSHIP workshop - to be held in Newcastle in June - is on the leadership development workshop page. Or if you just want to stay in touch - there's a form on the page for that, too. This page, on leadership and the jazz metaphor, develops those "leadership as jazz" ideas a little further. We present a case study of this approach with sixteen senior leaders and middle managers in a large UK public organization. The description of the model, "The Leadership Inquiry" and its application to university leadership development can be found here.
