The ukactive Future Leaders course really opened up my eyes to new ways of learning and a great network of individuals from across the UK and Europe. <\/p>\n
The course was based within an excellent learning environment at IESE campus in Barcelona, which is tailored specifically for executive development in a cutting-edge environment. The carefully selected course material and lectures ensured balance between theoretical learning alongside practical industry-based discussion.<\/p>\n
The experience has helped me to refocus on leadership and the longer term benefits of applying a leadership approach, rather than just a functional management focus. The classroom environment throughout the course challenged your thinking and helped shape your approach to difficult questioning and decision-making scenarios. <\/p>\n
This has helped me in my day-to-day role of applying some of the models shared through the course and experience gained from working with like-minded industry professionals. The fast-paced nature of the sessions and balance of activities kept the content fresh and interesting and the week flew by.<\/p>\n
The variety of group sessions, one-to-one coaching and executive challenges enhanced the learning opportunities and gave me a better understanding of different roles within the industry. I enjoyed the lectures on digitalisation, decision-making and the future of the industry, which were delivered in a thought provoking and interesting format. <\/p>\n
I would recommend the course to colleagues across the industry who are looking to widen their knowledge of the industry and challenge their learning, while networking with a wide variety of team players from across the business.<\/p>\n
