In-Person Training Sessions

There are three pillars to all the training we deliver (virtually and in person):

    1. Ensuring all your training goals are met

    2. Implementing accountability

    3. Delivering up to date inclusive and enjoyable training that sticks

We deliver the one-day sessions at your workplace or a venue you book (local hotel etc), and they are usually 09:00 - 16:00 but we can start as early as 08:00

Sometimes a one-day course is just not enough so we run programs of any length to suit you and your team.


The Online Leadership and Management Training Academy

I'm often asked if team members from small businesses and organisations can join one of the 12-month programs and the answer is unfortunately no! The ones I deliver are closed sessions for specific companies.

However. I have now created an online leadership and management training academy that comes with weekly virtual (live and recorded) support from me and my team, answering any questions the learners have. It also comes with an accountability group, where we keep the learners accountable for achieving their training goals and a manager's pack so the learner's line manager can keep them accountable too. There is a little more information in the video.

The online leadership and management training academy is ideal for anyone who has been promoted without training, or for team members who are soon to be promoted, for team members who find it difficult to get together every month and if you only have a couple of team members that need training.

There are 12 modules and you or your learners work through one per month

This is an online platform that is unlike any you've seen before. It's presented by a multi-award-winning business manager/owner who is also a leadership training specialist. It holds your team members accountable for achieving the training goals and there is as much support as they need - Adrian Close

We have delivered the training session to many teams in all sorts of industries with great results. The training helps to create a high performing culture at all levels.

The leadership skills training in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, is either a one day training session or (even better) part of the 12 month Acton Focused Leadership and Management Program that comes with the reflective logbook, which is such a powerful tool and keeps managers and team leaders, at all levels, accountable for achieving their part of the vision.  

There are two options with the 12-month Acton Focused Leadership and Management Program. You can either buy the license and deliver the program yourself (we offer a two day train the trainer session as part of the license and a support package) or one of our leadership and management specialists can deliver it for your team - Contact us for further information.

Another reason why we think it’s the best is that it has been written and developed by successful leaders. The information is from bloody nose experience rather than ivory tower philosophy! 

The Leadership training Course

More About the Program

It really is the best leadership training program around. The program consists of 12 training courses (one per month). There are lots of activities within each session that create goals for the learners to achieve when they return to work. They are designed to promote action and because they are monthly the managers and team leaders are held accountable to the tutor and their peers for achieving them. Here’s a link for further information.

What Issues the Program Resolves

Learners who have sat the program have produced amazing results. They’ve learnt:

  • To change their management style to suit the person they are managing rather than expect the person they are managing to change themselves to suit the manager 
  • To manage their time, energy and interruptions. One manageress saved 2 hours per day! By managing her time and delegating effectively
  • To recruit the best fit into the right position based on capability and the core values
  • To manage changes effectively using a 5-stage goal orientated change management system
  • To use performance improvement plans as a positive development tool
  • To manage conflict effectively by recognising needs and not just brushing them under the carpet and hope they go away
  • To deliver effective coaching sessions (by actively listening) and promoting action
  • To hold meetings that matter and implement a purposeful appraisal system
  • To take affirmative action and promote growth

Our Leadership Skills Training can be tailored to your needs and tweaked to be delivered at all levels. It's full of team activities (not role play) that everyone can enjoy and highlights any areas for your leaders to work on - we also achieve this virtually. Your team will leave with a list of up to 10 growth areas and the results from their emotional intelligence test - so there really is plenty for them to work on to ensure the learning is followed up. 

The course will help develop your leaders at all levels to lift, motivate, and inspire their teams to achieve exceptional performance by building a working environment where trust and co-operation becomes the norm. 

Our leadership skills training is delivered by experienced leadership specialist Adrian Close who has managed and lead his own teams and businesses to success. Because of this your leaders will be taught how to inspire others as Adrian has, not just to succeed, but to excel at everything they do. Your team will learn how to motivate teams through proven and innovative leadership techniques to create an ultimate team.

The session starts off with a creative thinking activity to motivate everyone and set the tone for the day. We then have a look at what makes a true leader and discuss weather leadership is a trait you are born with or a habit which can be taught - luckily for us it's the later. Your team will learn the top 10 leadership actions and rate themselves against them. Anyone who scores below our average starts to work out what they need to do to improve. 

We'll have a look at the differences between a leader and a manager (another team activity) and introduce the learners to 360 leadership skills. Seeing everyone in the organisation as a 10/10 for example. 

Towards the end of the day we will analyse "Leadership That Gets Results" by Daniel Goleman and when to use the 6 recognised Leadership Styles and how they fit in with developing emotional intelligence.
