New programme to develop better team leaders and increase employee engagement

CAMBRIDGE, U.K. - June 2, 2015 - PRLog -- The Leadership Business today launches a new programme for commercial team leaders and clinical team leaders to develop their leadership skills. The programme includes six days of intensive engagement spread over 3 to 6 months in a complete development package, which will produce more effective team leaders and increased levels of employee engagement.

The programme starts with a needs analysis and feedback so that the learning is planned, supported and grounded in the needs of the organisation. Following meetings with team leaders and line managers to build engagement, the programme moves on to a bespoke development course to introduce Action Centred Leadership (ACL) with practical opportunities for learning about what works, why and how. This involves ongoing learning reviews coupled with action plans to translate key learning into specific actions back in the workplace. These contribute directly to changing job plans and increase productivity and engagement. The programme them moves on to specific projects, coaching and review meetings to consolidate learning, recognise effort as well as results and increase engagement. It concludes with a report of the return on investment (ROI) of the programme in a way that matches the requirements of the organisation.

Mike Udin, Managing Director of The Leadership Business, commented “Team leaders play a vital role at all levels in organisations. Developing their leadership skills makes a proven and significant difference to the productivity and engagement of people in the organisations in which they work.”

The new programme is based on Action Centred Leadership™ or ACL® which has been developed by John Adair to become one of the best known leadership models in the world. Organisations worldwide use it to develop their leadership capability and management skills because it is both practical and highly effective. In all organisations better team leaders, increased employee engagement and better productivity, quickly and easily saving time and money. A key part of the package is defining and then measuring the overall return on investment (ROI) for the programme for the organisation.
