The programme  

‘Live-Online Developing Strategic Leaders’ takes inspiration from our residential Developing Leaders Programme. It offers participants a unique online experience which prepares them to deal with the uncertainty, fear and isolation that accompanies complex challenges. 

Held over three days, with a part two five months later, the programme offers a safe space in which individuals, tasked with shaping the future of their organisation, can unpack who they are as a leader and delve into the complexities of their current environment.

Themes covered on the programme are tailored to participant needs and challenges, but could include leading remotely, facilitating and implementing change, strategic vs operational leadership and exploring your next senior role. 

Led by a dedicated chairperson, our coaches facilitate smaller breakout groups to allow participants to discuss individual leadership challenges, and participants hear from guest speakers - who share personal insights into their own leadership experiences.  

Introducing Live-Online

The programme is delivered ‘live’ via Zoom so participants can interact with each other, the chair, facilitators and speakers as they would in-person. 

Unlike the stop-start modules of many online programmes, our development days are back to back, creating a fully immersive experience unparalleled elsewhere. This generates a deeper degree of openness, honesty and trust and allows participants to push themselves out of their comfort zones challenging themselves and others to think differently.

Who is it suitable for?  

This programme is ideal for established senior leaders looking to develop their strategic capability. 

With a focus on facilitated learning in a peer-to-peer environment, we welcome participants from across all the sectors, including public, corporate, education, faith, military and not-for-profit. This exposure to different leadership experiences and perspectives enhances the quality of debate and stimulates more diverse thinking.  

Benefits of attending

With an average satisfaction rate of 95% from participants, alumni regularly credit Windsor Leadership for having a dramatic impact on their leadership capabilities and, in turn, their ability to lead their organisations through change. 

Participants often leave with a better understanding of themselves as a person and a leader and gain confidence, courage and knowledge, as well as a renewed understanding of the importance of positive mental health and wellbeing, for themselves and the teams they lead. 

On-going support 

After completing a Windsor Leadership programme, our alumni have access to further development, coaching, mentors and one of the country’s most valuable networks of senior leaders in private, public, military and charitable organisations.
