A 2-day workshop led by Leading Practitioners of the IOL. This is
for those with a senior and strategic role in their organisation, or
who are seeking to develop their career to take on higher levels of
responsibility.
The outdoor learning sector is always subject
to many influences and challenges, just as we
are, in our working environments.
There comes a point when we all realise that
leadership is not something to only trust
in the hands of others – it is something we
must embrace ourselves. We realise we do
have the vision, we can inspire, and we can
achieve.
Strategic Leadership is about developing a
clear direction to achieving our goals and
considers the means to get there.
Recommended if you:
- Need to develop a vision and longer
term goals for your organisation and/
or team.
- Need to inspire, motivate, and
manage others.
- Need creative problem solving skills
and understand how to lead and
maintain change.
- Need to step-back from day-to-day
pressures to plan for your future.
- Want valuable and enjoyable CPD
with colleagues.
The programme includes shared learning and practical and inspirational input to:
- Learn from the experience and perspectives of other leaders in Outdoor learning
- Refresh your management skills and gain confidence in your leadership abilities
- Debate the impact of what is happening beyond the and outdoor sector
- Critically reflect on how your values and beliefs are driving you at work
- Use reflexive practice and coaching to gain solutions to your current challenges
