It benefits your managers

A manager sits at her laptop amongst co-workers with her head resting on her hands. She looks a bit puzzled, symbolising the feeling of ambiguity and isolation when you don't understand how your team perceives you or why your team isn't working efficiently.

Better methodology

Managers receive 1-1 coaching support from an accredited business coach.
We actively encourage managers to make tangible improvements to their methods and challenge their thinking throughout the apprenticeship.
