Evolving Leadership Programme 2022
The Insurance Institute of Leeds (IIL) and Zing 365 are offering you the chance to join a course specifically designed to help you work on your Leadership Skills.
We are looking for people who are at the start or in the middle of their own leadership development and who have a strong desire to develop personally. The programme offers a limited number of 12 places which will be offered following consideration of received applications.
This programme has been developed with the intention that attendees will take part in the entire set of modules and therefore develop themselves through and understand better how to put these learning principles into action.
The programme will be made up of the following:
- I hour introduction to the programme (online)
- The following Half Day interactive sessions. We are planning that these will run face to face from 9am to 1pm. N.B. the two sessions on Presentation skills will run as a full day from 9am til 5pm to give delegates the chance to practice their skills.
| Building effective Teams - 28th April |
| Coaching your Team - 12th May |
| Having Difficult Conversations - 26th May |
| Hybrid Team Management Models - 9th June |
| Inclusion & Belonging - 23rd June |
| Emotional Intelligence and Assertiveness - 14th July |
| How to Motivate yourself and others - 15th Sept |
| Effective Presentations - 29th Sept, Morning |
| Presentation Delivery - 29th Sept, Afternoon |
- A Coaching Call to run through any concerns/areas of development
The course is scheduled to start on the 12th April and then sessions will run roughly fortnightly (with a break over the summer. The last module is due to finish at the end of September.
The sessions will be challenging, interactive and inspiring. They will help delegates to learn best practice in Leadership and Management, client care and solving problems. There will be continuity with application between sessions to maintain momentum and to enable attendees to build on their experience throughout the programme.
Delegates will be given supporting notes and checklists to use as practical guidelines in day-to-day work and some time will be devoted in each session to allow the group to discuss the real life situations experienced (thus enabling sharing of ideas/suggested improvements).
With numbers limited to 12 delegates we will require a strong commitment from members. Please complete the attached application form to outline why we should consider you for a place.
At their option delegates can choose to pay an additional £150 per person to register with the Institute of Leadership and Management and will then obtain a recognised leadership certificate on completion of the programme.
