Introduction to the Edward Jenner Leadership and Management Programme
Leadership and Management Training: Edward Jenner Programme and Corporate Coach Group
For those aspiring to elevate their leadership skills, programmes like the Edward Jenner Leadership Programme offer an excellent foundation. Designed with flexibility in mind, the Edward Jenner Programme provides a suite of online short courses tailored to build your leadership confidence and competence.
However, while this programme is an excellent starting point, professionals seeking to accelerate their journey in leadership and management should consider complementary options like the Corporate Coach Group's intensive two-day Leadership and Management Training.
Why Consider Leadership and Management Training?
The Edward Jenner Programme is structured to guide people through essential leadership skills, beginning with personal development and progressing through various levels of leadership in the health and care sector. It's ideal for those within the NHS or similar environments, especially those preparing for their first management roles. The programme's focus on understanding what leadership means, leading through relationships, and managing teams offers a robust introduction.
However, leadership development doesn't stop at the foundational level. For professionals ready to move beyond the basics and into more advanced leadership techniques, the Corporate Coach Group's two-day Leadership and Management Training programme provides an invaluable next step. This unique course is designed to equip leader-managers with the specific attitudes, behaviours, and skills necessary to excel in their roles, whether you're within the NHS or any other sector.
Programme Structure and Key Skills
The Edward Jenner Programme introduces you to the fundamentals of leadership through its courses on personal development and relationship management. Similarly, the Corporate Coach Group's training enhances these basics by diving deep into practical skills such as setting and achieving specific goals, clear communication, and rational conflict management.
Management Framework
For instance, where the Edward Jenner Programme explores the role of the leader in managing teams, the Corporate Coach Group's training takes this further by teaching you how to communicate with clarity, confidence, and persuasiveness. It also emphasises the importance of planning, prioritisation, and delegation-key skills for any leader looking to manage time and resources effectively.
On this terrific 2-day course, we focus on developing six essential leadership/management skill sets:
- Goal setting / Goal achievement (because all teams exist to achieve goals).
- Clear communication skills. (The ability to make ourselves always clearly understood).
- Time management. (Planning, prioritisation, delegation, prevention of avoidable errors).
- Managing Conflict. (Performance management, handling difficult conversations).
- Self-motivation. (Self-control, self-awareness, and self-confidence).
- Inspirational leadership. (Creating a positive, productive team).
The two-day Corporate Coach Group programme also introduces concepts like rational conflict management and performance management. These align closely with the Edward Jenner Programme's focus on managing change and leading through challenges but are expanded to include hands-on strategies for maintaining productivity and morale in any work environment. (See the conflict management diagramme below)
Why Combine These Approaches?
The Edward Jenner Programme offers an excellent foundation, particularly for those new to leadership roles in healthcare. However, the Corporate Coach Group's training provides an opportunity to build on this foundation, offering advanced tools and techniques that can be applied across various sectors.
By blending the principles of Clarity, Rationality, and Positivity, you can gain a comprehensive understanding of leadership that prepares you for the complexities of real-world management.
In summary, while the Edward Jenner Programme is an essential step for those beginning their leadership journey, the Corporate Coach Group's intensive two-day course will ensure that you are not only confident and competent but also highly effective in your role. This two-day course offers the best training option, enabling you to develop the full spectrum of skills needed to succeed in today's challenging environments.
For those looking to maximise their leadership potential, considering both the foundational insights of the Edward Jenner Programme and the advanced techniques of the Corporate Coach Group's training will provide a powerful pathway to success.
