Course Content and Learning Outcomes

This training will provide delegates with an understanding of fundamental principles of leadership and management with a particular focus on work-based scenarios.

Following the course, the delegate will understand and be able to apply into their work practice:

• The concepts of self awareness: Helping participants understand how they think, manage emotions and become aware of personal narratives.
• The concepts of self monitoring: Teaching participants how to monitor themselves and apply appropriate interventions to their behaviours.
• Interpersonal skills: Enhancing the participant's awareness of how they engage and interact with those around them.
• Engage more effectively with patients: Helping to manage the participants 'internal world' so they can listen more deeply to understand their patient's needs.
• Play to team strengths: Helping participants to  leverage their skills and expertise and seek support to manage blind spots.
• Work collaboratively: Helping participants to understand team dynamics and therefore foster an environment where individuals and teams can debate, discuss, 'disagree well', share ideas, solve problems and make decisions.​

The course is delivered over two, live interactive online study sessions featuring polling, discussion groups and breakout areas. In addition, registration to our e-learning portal will provide supplementary material. Self-directed learning and a reflective piece of work will be completed within the delegate's own time and be submitted for assessment.

A follow up 40 minute session with the course lead is included (upon request-date arranged between delegate and course lead). This session will help the participant practice what they have learned, encourage accountability and provide a safe space for reflection and questions.
