Learning and development are most effective when they fit seamlessly into day-to-day working, without having to wait for the big budget, one off training courses.
Making development part of everyday practice helps retain talent as people feel more engaged and supported. It empowers individuals to take ownership of their own learning, growing professionally and contributing more effectively to their projects and teams.
Who this session is for
This course is designed for delegates from the same organisation.
It is aimed at practices that want to empower their people to take ownership of their personal development. It is particularly suitable for those looking to grow their careers while making a stronger contribution to projects.
It is equally suited to individuals at any stages in their careers, and it can be tailored to suit groups of senior or more junior delegates as required.
We recommend that the number of delegates is limited to between eight and 12. This is so that we can engage with everyone and pick up questions.
Course format
Beth Stallwood runs this course for us. Beth has a reputation for being an inspiring trainer with an energetic and uplifting style, balancing support and challenge in equal measure and enabling people to empower themselves to achieve their goals.
This is a highly interactive, 90-minute, online course that combines theory with practical applications. It is designed to ensure delegates get the best from the online format while avoiding screen-fatigue.
We like using Zoom but we are happy to use other platforms if preferred by our clients.
This course is also available as a half-day in-person session, in which group activities, case studies and discussions are added to the online content to ensure full participation and relevance to real life.
