LEAD Program

Five weeks to find the leaders you already have and start developing them. For 6–8 emerging leaders in one business unit.

Why it matters

Leadership risk rarely announces itself.

Critical roles with no ready successor. Managers carrying performance instead of building capability. Talented women without visible pathways, sponsorship or stretch. Different leadership standards across the same business.

The LEAD Program turns assumption into evidence, and evidence into practice. Your sponsor sees where leadership is strong and where it is exposed, and each participant leaves with a plan they own.

How it works

Five weeks, built on real work.

Week 1

Diagnose

Leadership Health Check with the sponsor, participant baseline and Session 1.

Week 2

Clarify

Session 2: expectations and feedback at work.

Week 3

Decide

Session 3: decisions and accountability.

Week 4

Delegate

Session 4: stretch work and fair opportunity.

Week 5

Commit

Session 5, individual 90-day plans and the executive readout.

Each week includes one 2-hour applied session, online or in person as agreed.

What’s included

What you receive.

Leadership Health Check

A three-hour sponsor-led review of the business unit across six areas: leadership expectations, capability and readiness, access to opportunity, succession exposure, follow-through and women’s progression.

Five applied sessions

Five 2-hour sessions built around how your business actually runs. Participants practise on their real work, with a participant workbook.

Individual 90-day plans

Each participant leaves with a 90-day plan, an owner and a review date, signed off by their manager.

Executive readout

The sponsor sees where leadership is strong, exposed and commercially important, with the recommended next step.

Lead From Your Pocket app

The Head Forward coaching app for every participant for six months, at no extra cost, so they can prepare for real conversations between sessions.

Protected participation

We report themes and progress, never private disclosures, and use the evidence you already have.
