Spring Forward – for people on the way up
Culture change needs to be driven from the top, when increasing diversity within organisations. It needs to be embedded however, throughout the organisation. Every employee deserves the opportunity to progress and fulfil their potential in their chosen field, regardless of their background.
Spring Forward is a career development programme for people who are approaching or newly appointed to a management role. It is also appropriate as a next step for those who have previously participated in the Springboard Women’s Development Programme or the Navigator Work and Personal Development Programme for Men.
The programme enables participants to learn how to lead a team, work on management confidence & gain insight into how gender, culture and managerial issues influence communication at work. It will include:
- Presenting yourself positively as a leader
- Moving up within your organisation
- Honing your communication skills with your peers & team
- Implementing a healthy stress management strategy
- Building self-motivation and create a positive attitude
- Overcoming any barriers to success
We also deliver a dedicated BAME Spring Forward programme as we recognise the specific challenges faced by minority groups. This programme in addition will :
- Look at You and your life now
- Help you understand racism and its impact both on you as the individual and in wider society
- Help you understand your values and beliefs
- Explore what leadership means to you
- Will help you tackle your perceived barriers to success within the organisation
- Develop cross cultural communication

In-house Option
We can also run this course for you, at your organisation, at a time and date that suits you.
