The Leader Guides set out practical workplace learning projects to develop internal capabilities whilst delivering business improvement goals.
Support plans provide timely training, coaching and hands on guidance during those projects covering programme leadership, improvement tools and implementation activities.
Projects, carried out alongside normal duties over quarterly cycles, integrate with and enhance day to day management routines through the application of:
