Leadership Essentials: for Libraries, Information & Archives

• Leadership  development programme embracing a work-related personal development  project. Tutor support includes facilitated workshops, team coaching and  individual mentoring.

Leadership Essentials - overview

Ideally  suited for team leaders and aspiring managers who have not benefitted  previously from leadership training, the programme extends over a  three-month period. The workshops (on Microsoft Teams) are involving and  interactive, focusing on the essentials of leading people in a  Libraries, Information or Archives environment. You then apply your  learning in a people-based project, useful to your organisation as well  as your own development. Finally, the online team coaching session, a  few months later in small groups of three, is an opportunity to share  experiences from projects, explore relevant and specific people issues  and learn from others.

Learning outcomes

• Provide confident leadership to motivate teams during challenging times.

• Coach and offer developmental feedback to team members and colleagues as they face new challenges.
