How you’ll learn
These development methods are aligned to The East Lothian Way and our leadership behaviours.
What do participants say?
PA Service Administrator Fiona Glass says: "The programme has enabled me to grow in confidence, particularly in people management, while helping me better understand my strengths, communication style and areas for further development.
"I particularly enjoyed the practical structure of the workshops, leaving each session with tangible takeaways that I could apply in my role, as well as the opportunity to connect with and learn from colleagues across the cohort.
"One of my biggest insights has been recognising the distinction between management and leadership, and how strong leadership helps create a positive culture."
