Program delivery philosophy

The program like leadership needs to engage ‘hearts as well as heads’.

To make this promise a reality, we focus on:

  • Taking a participant-centred and learning-centered approach
  • Providing a high level of trust, challenge and experiential processes which moves participants rapidly into action
  • Helping challenge individuals’ mental models and thinking: as Einstein said, “The thinking that got us into the problem isn’t the thinking that will get us out of it”
  • Acknowledging and building on participants’ existing experience and expertise
  • Recognising differing learning styles and stimulating the kind of thinking required (analysis, synthesis, empathy) – while acknowledging at the same time that…
