BESPOKE LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT  PROGRAMMES

Ann and the team have been delivering bespoke leadership programmes in a range of organisations including :
 
University College London (students in their first year of study)             

• The students say things like "Relaxed atmosphere. Everyone treated equally"; "The trainer explained the points really effectively"; "Interactive sessions were great";  "The interaction kept everyone involved"
•  John Braime, Manager of the Student volunteer Bureau says  'Ann Paul's Leadership sessions never fail to enthuse and inspire our students. They come away with a real insight into leadership -  both the content and the delivery are pitched perfectly at the audience.'

Performance Management courses for RNID's Communication Services and Development Deparment - where the Director, Kath Phipps, said the following:

"Ann Paul (Associates) delivered 2 days of Performance Management training for the managers in the Communication Services and Development team at RNID.  The course was practical, dealt with day to day issues that the managers were facing and has resulted in increased confidence in dealing with challenging issues. 
 
Feedback from attendees included:

• Trainer was fantastic - very down to earth, realistic and experienced
• I feel more empowered to use my own initiative and find my own way of dealing with poor performance
• Gained some useful tips on how to deal with performance issues and gave me more confidence that what I have been doing is correct!"

Kidney Research UK's Head of Individual Fundraising, Peter Storey, said:"Ann Paul and her colleagues bring a fresh approach to leadership development.  For a subject which some may find rather academic or intangible, they encourage you to develop your leadership skills through a wide variety of tools and techniques. arming the delegate with practical actions to take away and put into practice from day 1, having had enormous fun on the course"

For NCVO (National Council of Voluntary Organisations), Martin Farrell, Amy Kweskin and  Ann designed and delivered the one year Leadership for Civil Society programme, funded by Barclays Bank and delivered in three geographic centres throughout 2008/9, London, Leeds and Bristol where one delegate ended the programme saying "it has completely changed my life!"

• Martin, Amy and Ann, together with colleagues in San Francisco are able to deliver exciting cross-Atlantic leadership programmes in organisations, large and small.  We believe that this is a unique offering which will benefit delegates in the US and the UK
