Welcome to FLIGHT, a five-month programme to support emerging leaders to develop the skills and the confidence to become efficient Team Leaders in their roles across the social and community sectors. This programme explores who we are as leaders, how to implement good practice in our leadership, providing practical tools to implement in everyday work, this programme will grow your leadership skills for this unique workforce in a way no other course can provide.
This programme is designed to provide monthly workshops that bring together other members of the community to build connections and share knowledge, focussing on key attributes of good team leadership. At the workshop, each participant will be provided with a resource to provide additional learning and further exploration.
Each month the participants will have the opportunity for a one-on-one mentoring session to explore how the learning is being implemented ad to address any questions that may be specific to their context or their style of leadership.
