”This is an opportunity for staff to learn about leadership in an experiential way through applying the underpinning leadership theory into practice through institutional projects”
Those taking part included staff from Facilities Management, the School of Health Sciences and Partnerships and Innovation.

Patrick Hackett, Chief Operating Officer, said: “This is an opportunity for staff to learn about leadership in an experiential way through applying the underpinning leadership theory into practice through institutional projects. They have gained valuable insight into the challenges of the complexities of working with so many people who all want to make sure that we as an institution get things right.”

The programme is endorsed by the Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM) at Level 5 and includes a membership to the ILM.
