Lean into

leadership

a 6-module course which looks at the different skills and qualities, of management & leadership, how to adopt and embrace them; and  how to successfully be able to do both

Making the move from Manager to Leader doesn't happen over night and doesn't happen in one step. 

There are different skills and qualities needed for leadership than for management.  And there are many times when someone perceived as
A Leader will need to Manage, and where a person perceived as A Manager will need to Lead

I’ve done some of Claire’s programmes before, so I knew Lean into Leadership would be grounded, thoughtful, and full of practical takeaways—and it absolutely delivered.  Lean gave me the time and space to really explore what leadership means for me, not just in theory but in the day-to-day reality of my role. It helped me understand the difference between managing and leading, and where I need to grow next.

 

Claire has a brilliant way of making big concepts feel clear and do-able, and of creating a space where everyone feels comfortable being honest.

I’ve come away with more clarity, more confidence, and a stronger sense of my own leadership style.
