  • Leap is not about teaching you to be a better or different leader.

  • Leap is not for people who simply want another course on leadership theory or management skills.

Leadership Leap was designed because talented professionals working closely with executive leaders often reach a pivotal point in their career where they begin to ask:
“What’s next for me?”
“Is that next level right for me?”
“Do I really have what it takes?”

These questions aren’t usually about capability - they’re about confidence, belief, and readiness. Even when they do have the skills, there’s often still that quiet voice whispering, “Are you sure?”

What Leap does is work with your most capable emerging leaders to help them:

  • Discover their innate confidence and clarify their vision for what’s next.

  • Understand who they are now as leaders and the kind of executive they aspire to be.

  • Find their authentic executive voice - without needing to change roles first.

  • Step forward with greater presence, conviction, and impact for the organisation they care deeply about.

Leap doesn’t teach leadership. It awakens it.

How it works

Each participant is partnered with a dedicated executive coach

Every leader has their own experienced coach who provides one-to-one support, challenges thinking, tracks progress, and personalises the learning journey to individual goals and context.

Learning is self-guided, applied, and reinforced through live group coaching

Participants complete short weekly video and worksheet modules, then, every 3-weeks they join a live 60-minute group coaching session to reflect, apply insights, and learn from peers.

Progress is measured and sustained through reflection, feedback, and accountability

Participants complete programme quarter reviews, engage their managers for real-world alignment, and track progress at pre, mid and final assessments— ensuring continued progress against both programme success metrics and individual goals.

Programme Outcomes:

Clearer Self-Awareness and Mindset Definition

  • Participants report identifying the type of executive mindset they want and recognising their own strengths, weaknesses, and blind spots.

Shift from Operational to Strategic Thinking

  • Participants describe a mental shift from doing to leading, from tasks to systems, from control to empowerment.

Reflection and Self-Regulation

  • Strong emphasis on reflection, reframing, and inner dialogue awareness — managing self-talk and building emotional resilience.

Confidence and Purpose

  • From start to end the participant tone shifts from doubt and uncertainty to clarity, belief, and momentum.

    “This awareness has made me more confident and purposeful.”

Morwenna Henderson, Talent Acquisition and HR Manager, Syos Aerospace.

The Leadership LEAP programme was truly exceptional in helping me step up and fully embrace my role as an executive leader. It gave me the clarity and courage to own my vision, lead with my values, and make a meaningful impact as a Senior HR leader. The tools and insights helped me move past the things that had been holding me back and empower me to create real, lasting, and impactful change within the business. I’ve come away with a renewed sense of purpose, confidence, and belief in what I’m capable of achieving.

  • "Through the LEAP programme, I've become more attuned to my thought patterns and how they influence my actions."

    “I learned the immense value of self-reflection in understanding my motivations, behaviours, and impact on others.

    This self-awareness has been essential in aligning my leadership style with my values and has reinforced the importance of continuous self-improvement and adaptability”.

    – Leadership Leap Participant

  • "This programme has been pivotal in building my confidence and effectiveness as a leader."

    “The collaborative and encouraging atmosphere within the group provided a safe space for sharing ideas and challenges. The environment allowed me to gain diverse perspectives, receive constructive feedback, and build a network of like-minded peers, all of which has been instrumental in my growth and success.

    The insightful and tailored support from my coach has been crucial and helped me address specific challenges, refine my strategies and stay focused on my leadership development journey.”

    – Leadership Leap Participant

  • "This isn't just leadership development - it's soul work."

    “Before starting Leadership Leap, I was burying my head in the sand. I knew I needed a clear strategy for growing the team, but I’ve never seen myself as a natural leader. I’d made my share of mistakes - not delegating, poor communication, and failing to empower my team to thrive.

    From the very first session, it felt different. The programme gave me space to pause, reflect, and examine my patterns, my values, and my vision for leadership.

    It’s not an exaggeration to say Leadership Leap has positively impacted every area of my life.”
