It focuses on practical strategies that enable a confident and effective start in leadership for new managers.

Participants will learn how to:

Our programmes are built to move

Behavioural training earns its place only when it shifts the measures an organisation already tracks. The figures below are the outcomes for one of our programmes.

Fig. 02 Durability of behaviour change
Durability of behaviour change over 90 days Capability under the LIA programme rises through delivery and is sustained across the following 90 days, while typical training peaks at delivery and reverts toward baseline. 90-day window High Base Start Delivery +90 days LIA programme Typical training

Isolated training reverts under operational pressure. Structured action planning and 90-day reinforcement hold the gains.

Basis of measurement

Figures reflect indicative outcomes from LIA programme evaluations using client-defined baselines. We measure pre/post diagnostic scores, 30–90 day behaviour application, and organisation-specific indicators (retention, engagement, team effectiveness) rather than satisfaction alone. Reported figures are baselined and agreed with each client.

Before you enquire

Questions organisations raise

How do we know this will actually change behaviour, not just fill a training day?

We run a pre/post diagnostic against measures you already track — retention, engagement and decision speed, with a follow-up at 90 days.

What does the price include?

Facilitation, all delegate materials, CPD certification, and a pre-session context briefing with your team. Priced per group up to 20 delegates.

Can you tailor it to our sector and cohort?

Yes. We brief with you first and rebuild the scenarios around your mandate, markets and seniority mix. Public-sector delegations and multinational teams get different case material.

We can't release the team for a full day. What are the options?

A 3.5-hour half-day covers one framework module, or we split delivery across sessions. Self-paced online is available for teams who need to work around the diary entirely.

Do you deliver outside the UK?

Yes — across EMEA, including Gulf markets, on site or hybrid. We also host institutional learning journeys in London for visiting delegations.

What happens after we enquire?

You will hear from a programme director within one working day. We will ask about your cohort and mandate, then return a tailored proposal with dates and costs. No obligation.

Still deciding?
Tell us your cohort and mandate, we will return a tailored proposal.
