Management development programme Leading in the 21st Century is a new bespoke programme specifically designed around the key roles outlined in the 21st Century Public Servant model.

What’s new about this programme?

This cross-authority programme is comprised of 4 modules (below) all designed around the skills and behaviours associated with the 8 identified roles of the 21st Century Public Servant. It has no specific start and finish date but instead allows participants to sign up to just the modules required for their specific development needs.

What’s in this for you?  

The programme is designed to encourage practical application of the course content, also promoting cross functional thinking. Every module will give you the opportunity to meet managers from neighbouring authorities, building a network of contacts and offering you the chance to look outside for expertise and ideas. 

The interactive workshops are all on line and will help give you the support you need to manage remotely, whilst providing some of the missing social interaction enjoyed in the office.
