Leadership & Team Development

Leadership workshops for emerging and first-time leaders

Practical workshops for people stepping into management for the first time, focused on the real conversations and responsibilities they face at work.

Ideal for cohorts of emerging leaders, first-time managers or teams promoting strong individual contributors into people-leadership roles.

Workshops

Full day

Coaching for Performance

A practical introduction to coaching conversations at work. Covers listening to understand, asking empowering questions, and using the GROW model and practical feedback frameworks to help team members find their own answers and take ownership.

Half day

Strengths at Work

A team-based strengths workshop built on individual CAPP Strengths Profile assessments. Participants learn to spot and use their own strengths, understand the team profile, and apply strengths thinking to collaboration, workload and performance conversations.

Half day

Stepping Up: From Mate to Manager

For people managing former peers for the first time. Built around the specific, unglamorous problems that come with it:

  • Setting a boundary without losing the relationship
  • Giving direct, specific feedback to someone who was your equal last month
  • Holding people accountable for outcomes, without needing to be liked to feel it is working
  • Communicating clearly under pressure, without over-explaining or over-apologising for the role
  • Using the authority the role actually gives you, without becoming the manager nobody wants to work for

A hands-on, scenario-based session. Participants work through the actual conversations they are avoiding, using the same coaching frameworks (including GROW) that underpin Coaching for Performance, applied to the moment of becoming someone's manager.

How these are run

  • On-site at your organisation or a venue of your choice
  • Cohort size typically 8 to 10 participants
  • Interactive, scenario-based and immediately applicable
  • Can be delivered as a one-off module or combined into a longer emerging leader programme
