Masterclasses
During the year, we have delivered a number of masterclasses:
Delivering Personal Effectiveness and Insights Discovery – a lifelong system for optimising personal and professional effectiveness.
During this workshop, colleagues learn a common language to support their growth as an individual and as a team. They receive and work through a personal profile during the workshop that looks at their:
- Personal style

This course was delivered to service managers up to the Executive Management Team and each now has their own insights profile to help them grow and develop.
