Is your organisation facing these challenges?
Managers struggle to empower and develop employees
Many managers have not developed the coaching and motivational skills to empower and upskill employees to release their potential.
Managers lack confidence and avoid giving feedback
Managers are not keeping up with one-to-ones or performance reviews and avoid having difficult conversations, leaving it to HR give difficult feedback when needed.
Employees are lacking engagement at work
Surveys and chats with employees have highlighted that many of them lack motivation to achieve goals and take on more work.
Develop your managers into excellent leaders
The Leadership Capability Framework helps you choose which competencies need developing in your managers, tailoring a course that will make them more effective leaders.
Here’s how tailoring a programme will help your managers become excellent leaders:
-
The training will develop your managers according to the exact development needs you have become aware of
-
From understanding what leadership is under ‘Leadership Essentials’, to coaching employees to develop them under ‘Leading People’, choose what they need to grow as leaders
-
Or learning how to develop a vision and SMART goals through ‘Setting Direction’ to managing their time and prioritising under ‘Leading Self”
-
Or becoming much more effective at giving one-to-ones or managing change through ‘Leadership Communication’
-
Build a tailored course that develops your managers’ leadership, confidence, motivation and ability to keep employees engaged and focused at work

What your managers will learn on this programme
Using the Leadership Capability Framework, Owners, HR & Training Managers can work with us to design a tailored training programme that matches the exact learning needs of your managers.
There is complete flexibility in how it is scheduled, whether you would like it on consecutive days, or one or two days a month, and can be delivered in-person or virtually.
Each pillar contains essential leadership competencies for managers to be effective, making it a complete leadership toolbox. There are five pillars, all mentioned below together with some sample competencies for each one.
- Leadership Fundamentals: Defining leadership, How leadership differs from management, the Leadership Grid and Situational Leadership
- Leading Self: Understanding and Developing Emotional Intelligence, Prioritising and Time Management
- Leading People: Coaching for Development, Delegating Effectively, Motivating Team Members and Having Difficult Conversations
- Setting Direction: Developing a Department Vision/Mission, Setting Effective SMART Goals, Aligning with Organisational Direction
- Leadership Communication: Successful One-to-One Meetings, Managing Change Effectively and Communicating Assertively and with Different DISC Personality Styles
The Leadership Capability Framework will help us work with you to design a course around your organisation’s goals, culture, and the challenges your managers are currently facing, together with their learning needs. This ensures that what is covered feels relevant, practical, and easy to use from day one.
Learn core principles: Managers are introduced to the proven leadership models, concepts and behaviours that you are looking to develop that will build trust and increase engagement.
Practise the skills: Through discussions, examples, guided activities and exercises, managers can apply the techniques to situations they are facing in your organisation.
Put it into action: Each participant creates a personal action plan to help them apply what they have learned consistently after the course.
Optional follow-up coaching or group sessions are available to reinforce learning and help managers embed new leadership habits in the workplace.

We can deliver it face-to-face, online or hybrid with entire flexibility if you prefer one/two days a week or month or whether it is delivered in one block.
The programme works best with groups of 6 up to maximum 16 participants to allow for discussions, interactions, and personal feedback. We sometimes accommodate slightly larger groups but this will need to be discussed.
