Developing Leadership Programme

Leading in times of change

The Developing Leadership Programme is designed to help you be an effective role model and bring about positive changes whilst promoting a team approach that is inclusive, vibrant and supported by continuous learning. This programme has been developed for nursing staff Level 5 or equivalent.

About this programme

Health care delivery is evolving and many registered nurses work in increasingly demanding roles, face competing priorities, increased expectations and shifting perceptions of the role.

This two-day programme is suited for both the NHS, independent sector and third sector organisations. This is ideal for organisations that would like to invest in a group of aspiring leaders.
