Additional Guidance on Selecting a Programme (551.04 KB PDF)

 

These programmes aim to produce positive role models committed to delivering courageous, authentic and inclusive leadership and management for the benefit of all in the University through supporting the following themes:

  • Know yourself: understand yourself as a manager/leader: your style, your strengths, the shadow you cast
  • Know your context: understand your role and how this fits in the University to deliver strategy 2030; understand the system and awareness of self in that system, what leadership and management is required
  • Know your goals: bringing together your strengths and context, identify your focus for development and form steps toward achieving your individual goals and departmental goals aligned to strategy 2030

 

The programmes supports delegates to identify their individual learning objectives and tailor their development accordingly.

There is a strong focus on self-directed learning, blended with online workshops and discussion groups to build leadership and management networks across the organisation.

Content in each element has been designed to reflect key organisational priorities, embed our values and create a community of leaders and managers.

Full details of each programme’s aims and objectives are on the relevant programme landing page below.

We look forward to supporting you on your journey to becoming more confident and accomplished in your role at the University.

 

Best wishes,

The Learning & Organisation Development Team
