About LEAD

LEAD is an innovative leadership programme designed specifically around the needs of SME owner-managers who want to gain confidence and improve their Leadership skills.

It is aimed at small companies with up to 20 employees which are based in the North West. Since its inception in 2004 over 150 business owners-manager have benefited from this ten month leadership programme.

The businesses that have taken part in LEAD have benefited from a significant increase in sales turnover, improved staff productivity and business processes, increased confidence of owners-managers allowing them to make the right decisions in business.

“LEAD has given me the power to take the action to empower my staff and myself to drive my business forward” – LEAD cohort delegate, February 2009.

LEAD concentrates on two areas: the business itself and the personal development of the owner-manager. The programme is made up of several elements which run alongside each other throughout the ten months including masterclasses, action learning, coaching, shadowing and exchanges and the on-line forum.

Although LEAD is a high value programme, it is supported by the NWDA resulting in a maximum cost to the business of £2K. Funding may be available through the Train to Gain L&M programme to reduce this cost a further £1K.
