Course Overview

A process for inclusive leadership programmes that managers quietly work around has already failed. People decide what the people management and development capability really means by watching who gets promoted. Participants apply this area of people management and development to their own workforce throughout, so the output is directly usable. The course covers inclusive leadership programmes at the level of detail needed to act, and stops there. Moving the people management and development capability from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. Participants finish able to explain this aspect of people management and development to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for inclusive leadership programmes, not for observers of it. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in the people management and development capability that were visible long before the incident. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on this strand of people management and development ready to put in front of a decision maker.
