Leadership Essentials

This is a practical, fast paced and action focused programme for business owners and directors.

Join Leadership Essentials to define your leadership style and address a specific challenge within your business through a series of half-day workshops. You'll also receive a personal introduction to Business Mentoring Scotland so that you can benefit from ongoing business advice.

Programme highlights

Learn about different leadership styles, work out which is right for you, and devise an action plan.

  • A personal assessment - We will talk to you about your leadership and communication style and help you create an action plan for a current business issue.
  • A series of workshops: Half-day workshops over an 8 week period will demonstrate the importance of leadership to your business in terms of strategy, innovation and market development.
  • One-to-one mentoring: At the end of the programme we will introduce you to Business Mentoring Scotland (a service provided by Scottish Chambers of Commerce in partnership with Scottish Enterprise). This will match you to an experienced mentor who can help you over the next 12 months.
