Lead With Impact: Grow Your Leadership Skills

A five month online leadership program for small business leaders and emerging managers who want deeper confidence, stronger self awareness and practical people leadership skills.

Leading people is rewarding and complicated, and most leaders are figuring it out as they go. Lead With Impact is designed to guide you through that journey with a structured, supportive and highly practical five month program that helps humans manage humans with confidence.

This course blends self-paced learning, live online workshops, individualised coaching and real-world tools you can apply immediately. Everything is online so you can learn from anywhere without taking time away from your business.

A core part of the program is the DISC assessment. You will receive a personalised behavioural profile and a one-on-one debrief after Module One to help you understand your leadership style, your communication patterns and how you work with others. You will also receive two individual coaching sessions later in the program to embed your learning.

Lead With Impact is ideal for small business leaders, current or emerging, who want clarity, confidence and strategies that actually work with real humans, not just textbook versions of them.
