Imagine you could learn to lead effectively and have the support to put it into practice?

It's hard enough being a leader when the world is normal. 2020 created a landscape in which we have all been challenged - leaders and business owners along with the rest.

Leading a team may not even be a role that you ever wanted. You don't see yourself as 'natural leader’. You’re now wondering how on earth you can learn what you need to when there aren't enough hours in the day and you don't know where to start.

What if you could increase your confidence in just an hour a week?

Growing your leadership without help is HARD

You’d love some help, but what should you read, and how do you make sure your time investment pays off immediately?

1.

There's a daily personal and business cost when you leave your leadership confidence level low. It’s no fun to feel like you're not doing the best for yourself or your people. And in this economy, the stakes are higher than ever.

2.

You want to lead well, but you don't know where to start. You've got little enough time as it is, and yet you want to do something to make things better. Which books? Which courses? Which videos or podcasts? And who can you ask for advice?

3.

You feel like you're repeating the same mistakes over and over. You seem to upset the same people again and again. Or maybe you're constantly stressed by the thought of yet another difficult conversation you know you need to have. It's frustrating!

I have been in your shoes

My own journey to leadership confidence

I have been in your position. I know what it’s like to lead in difficult times and have to step up when you don't feel equipped.

I spent 15 years living and working in East Africa as the leader in an international development charity, eventually becoming CEO. We ran multiple programmes including a social enterprise, full service private dental practice, so I'm familiar with your pressures.

Without any formal leadership training, I survived!

Thanks to my mentors, coaches, a lot of study, reading and practice, I learned how to lead, and critically, I have learned how to see myself as a leader.

I’ve successfully led teams for 20+ years and developed my leadership knowledge and skills in the field. And I’ve distilled the things I’ve learned into an accessible programme to help people like you.

Imagine what it will be like to lead every day with confidence

SOUNDS AMAZING, RIGHT?

“I now want to be the person that people want to come and work for. I want my team to be the best they can be.”

The Confident Leader Club Syllabus

Module 1 - Week 1 & 2

Start with Self Leadership

There's a reason all aircraft safety briefings include the phrase "put your own oxygen mask on first, before helping others."

You cant lead others if you're not first leading yourself well. In this module, we'll cover the daily, weekly, monthly and longer rhythms you need to ensure you are leading yourself positively. We'll study self-management, self-awareness, and self-growth. We'll help you take control of your wellbeing.

Walk Away With:

A simple action plan to establish and maintain a rhythm for positive self leadership.

A way to establish and improve your own self-awareness.

Learn about a system of value-driven self management.

The specific leadership qualities you need to develop.

A simple rhythm to develop your leadership beyond the course.

Walk Away With:

A solid, engaging mission statement framework to engage the 'Start With Why' generation.

A way to link your values to your mission to improve recruitment and culture.

Greater clarity and achievement on a daily basis for everyone in your business.

"Brilliant - it's empowered the whole team - dentists, hygienists, nurses, receptionists, even the cleaner are now doing things towards one goal."

James Goolnik - Bow Lane Dental

Module 2 - Weeks 3 & 4

Your Business Creed

Most practices I have worked with fail to communicate the ‘Why’ behind their work. They know What do, in some cases How to do it, but not the foundation - the purpose or reason 'Why?'

Knowing 'What to do' does not drive behaviour. When we fail to communicate our purpose, we make team engagement and support more difficult.

In this module, we'll tackle 5 fundamental questions that you and your team need to have answers to. Building these messages into your leadership will give you a more inspired, engaged and successful team and much more.

Module 3 - Weeks 5 & 6

Create a Winning Culture

A very common problem leaders experience is the gap between how we want people to behave, and what those people actually do.

Without clarifying and communicating expectations, people will do what they like, they will make up their own standards. So the question is not ‘do you have a culture?’ but ‘are you in charge of it?’...

In this module, we will study the four fundamental principles for successfully establishing a positive culture, and build a framework to ensure 'what you want' is implemented and reinforced every day.

Walk Away With:

An understanding of the importance of culture and a knowledge of the typical pitfalls in building it.

An evaluation of your own culture.

A clearly defined set of culture points, linked to your Business Creed.

A framework to consistently communicate, enforce and celebrate your culture.

Walk Away With:

Greater confidence, presence, charisma and belief in your communication.

The five key elements for a team communications content plan.

Your own framework for the systematic and consistent communication of important overarching messages.

A way to structure your content for maximum communication success in a variety of scenarios.

Module 4 - Weeks 7 & 8

Powerful Communication

“The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.” - George Bernard Shaw

How many times have you failed to effectively communicate a new idea or vision, and walked away frustrated? If you do succeed, how long does that new idea last before it gets lost in the onslaught of daily operations?

In this module, we will cover the knowledge and tools you need to communicate with authenticity, clarity and success.

Walk Away With:

Greater confidence, presence, charisma and belief in your communication.

The five key elements for a team communications content plan.

Your own framework for the systematic and consistent communication of important overarching messages.

A way to structure your content for maximum communication success in a variety of scenarios.

Module 5 - Weeks 9 & 10

Create a Team of Leaders

Getting people to do what you want to a high standard, maintain a positive attitude, take initiative are all huge challenges. It can be frustrating and draining to feel like you have to stay on top of people the whole time in order to get the job done

What you want is the dream team - one that plays their part beautifully, takes responsibility and genuinely cares about the business.

In this module we will learn how to create a team of leaders.

Walk Away With:

Tools to manage ego and bring people onto (or off) the 'bus'*.

A system for more effective delegation and coaching leadership so you can be free to focus on your unique contribution.

A way to get your team to genuinely care about the business, customers, and each other.

A robust framework for building and protecting deeper and more authentic team engagement

Proven strategies for positive inter-personal communication and a process handling difficult conversations.

Serena Hoyte - new principal

I now understand my why, mission, values and culture. I've found that the appreciation of this is crucial.

I can now apply all my learnings to the new practice I've bought to hit the ground running and start how I mean to go on..

Susan Watt - principal

I joined to increase my confidence - being a leader when you're an introvert can be difficult.

I now understand the team more and the need to take more time to focus our team on the destination. I now realise the importance of understanding that if people know why they are being asked to do something this really helps to get them to do what you ask.

Steph Durham - Principal

I really enjoyed having access to Mark and being surrounded by non-judgemental and supportive colleagues.

Implementing even very small elements of the course has made a significant difference to my team's attitude, and the patients comment on the positive feeling in the practice.

Amazing course - I would do it again!
