“An excellent opportunity to develop new skills and meet colleagues from a wide range of backgrounds with similar experiences and developmental needs.”

Dr Gordon Munro
Head of Undergraduate Programmes
Royal Conservatoire of Scotland

The Leadership Foundation is here to help you fulfil your potential as a leader, and we can support you at every stage of your career. All our open programmes offer invaluable opportunities to reflect on your own practice, work alongside colleagues from other institutions and explore recent thinking on university leadership at your level.

When you take up - or prepare for - the next challenge in your career, you will probably be looking to develop further your professional leadership capabilities and expertise. Beyond Introduction to Head of Department there are opportunities to progress to additional programmes such as Head of Department and Preparing for Senior Strategic Leadership.

The Leadership Foundation will keep in contact with you after your programme, and offer you a range of follow-up services, including one-day seminar events, specialist short programmes and one-to-one executive coaching. There will also be the chance to engage in activities and events for programme alumni, for those who wish to build and sustain their networks as leaders
