Course Overview

Overview:

This programme has been designed specifically for existing and aspiring senior leaders operating across the healthcare sector. The design and delivery team include leadership development professionals with broad experience of working within the healthcare sector, both private and NHS.

The programme gives attendees the time and opportunity to undertake an in-depth exploration of the leader’s role in enabling their teams to face the challenges and maximise the opportunities being faced across the sector.

The programme explores mainstream and sector specific leadership and organisational models, frameworks, case studies and research and to maximise the individual learner’s development journey a person-centred coaching approach is adopted throughout. 

Our experienced facilitator team will support participants to consider how the learning can deliver tangible positive outcomes on their return to the workplace. To support this innovative and pragmatic approach to the programme delivery participants will attend three 2.5-hour action learning / group coaching sessions which will be scheduled over an, approximately, 6-month period after the conclusion of the taught phase. 

Participants will also receive two post-programme strategic leadership coaching sessions to embed their learning into professional practice and support their personal and professional development. (I just wanted to check this was included and costed in. We referenced it in the original proposal documents, but I just wanted to draw your attention to it) It can always be offered as a bolt on and charged separately. 

The programme is mapped to a CMI Level 7 Certificate in Strategic Management and Leadership.

Learning Outcomes:

• Explore the skills and behaviours of strategic leaders in the healthcare sector and beyond
• Undertake in depth analysis of their own operating environment and use scenario planning and future scaping approaches to explore the next steps for healthcare
• Investigate agile and innovative principles and the behaviours required for successful application
• Understand the intricacies of leading in complex environments
• Consider how to build a future ready organisational culture
• Apply a range of innovative strategy and diagnostic tools to shape organisational outcomes
• Analyse the principles and practice of change

Our approach to delivery is different from other providers. Our programme is structured as 3 classroom / virtual classroom-based days followed by individual and group leadership development coaching and facilitated action-learning sets throughout the following 9-months. This approach allows learning to translate into meaningful strategic change in the client’s organisation as well as supporting their personal transformational journey through access to world class leadership coaching. Learners also have access to a sophisticated Ed-Tech system where they can find a range of supporting resources as well as a leading leadership profiling tool.

Action Learning / Group Coaching:

Participants will come together for three facilitated action learning / group coaching sessions once the taught element of the programme concludes.

The first session will take place approximately 4-6 weeks after the taught phase with subsequent sessions scheduled at (approximately) 6-week intervals.

Led by an experienced action-learning facilitator / group coach the sessions will allow participants to further explore and problem solve their operating environment, co-create solutions with their learning cohort, take a deep-dive into their own leadership philosophy and embed the learning with positive intent in their organisational setting
