What our learners say

The leadership training was valuable and great fun. The filmed practice presentation which Maurice and I then analysed later in a one-on-one, was a helpful insight that informed the presentations I made. I think the utility of all of the training will only increase as I move through my career and into leadership roles.

Jake T

I was initially sceptical about the leadership training, worried that it would be all about motivational quotes and ‘selling’ yourself, but I was pleasantly surprised that it took a real life, practical approach to questions of leadership and gave us opportunity to discuss models of leadership that could be applicable to our lives in the near future, if not right now.

Bethan J

I really enjoyed the leadership training. It was very interactive and gave us lots of opportunities to reflect upon leadership and upon our personal leadership styles.

Rosie S

As a future doctor, leadership and team working skills will be crucial for working on a busy NHS ward where I will face the pressure of making life and death decisions. I wanted to grasp the true meaning of practical leadership, which should not be just about giving orders. This was a fantastic opportunity to be able to discuss what leadership means in scientific and medical practice.
