- Boosting interpersonal skills – to improve clarity and content of communication and increase persuasiveness.
- Channelling energy and passion – to become an inspiring and transforming leader.
- Developing others – to realise the teams’ potential through effective coaching and delegation.
- Forging mental toughness – to build self-confidence, resilience, and assertiveness.
- Setting clear direction – to achieve strategic alignment and engagement during time of change.
- Increasing self-awareness – to adapt to others and develop strong working relationships.
Leadership Mindset: Confronting the Comfort Zone
Leadership Mindset: Confronting the Comfort Zone
We all like to operate within our comfort zone. It’s warm, reassuring and familiar. It can also be the biggest barrier to successful development and growth.
The Personal Impact Leadership Programme stretches you outside of your comfort zone a little at a time, helping you reach your true leadership potential.
By focusing on real-life leadership challenges, you can immediately apply new behaviours to issues you are currently facing, and instantly increase your personal impact.
Regular feedback and coaching throughout this highly practical programme ensures that new leadership confidence and behaviours are effectively embedded back in the workplace.
Leadership challenges
As a leader, you’re constantly challenged, especially in today’s volatile, complex and often ambiguous world. In your day-to-day role, these challenges present themselves in many different ways…
- A recent promotion to a senior management position with several direct reports
- Stepping away from day-to-day operations to think and behave more strategically
- Building and retaining a high performing team in a highly competitive marketplace for talent
- Motivating, inspiring and supporting a team through on-going change and uncertainty
- Improving cooperation and collaboration between teams to increase group performance
- Developing others’ potential through the use of effective coaching and delegation
No matter what type of challenges you face now or in the future, our programme equips you with the knowledge, experience, and types of behaviours you need in order to overcome those challenges.

Individual profiles support personal development, while team sessions investigate collective strengths and challenges to build stronger working relationships, enhance teamwork and encourage effective collaboration.

ChangingPoint’s interactive leadership workshops offer practical tools and techniques that will enhance leadership confidence and develop new leadership behaviours.
By focusing on real-life personal impact leadership challenges – agreed with line managers during a pre-programme meeting and reviewed again during a post-programme meeting – participants immediately apply new thinking to issues they are currently facing, and instantly increase their personal leadership impact.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. Leadership is defined as the act of leading a group of people or an organisation, which requires a certain set of skills and behaviours. The first step to teaching these skills is to raise awareness of the current habits and behaviours that support effective leadership and those that might stand in the way. With an open mind, it’s possible to discover and put into practice new behaviours that promote leadership growth, from setting strategic direction and managing change through to effective delegation and developing others.
Leadership development programmes can offer significant personal and business benefits. The secret to success is in their alignment to current individual and organisational objectives. We value getting to know participants and the teams in which they work to ensure that our practical solutions will target their specific needs. These insights also help us to define clear measures of success which are used to evaluate programme outcomes. We also know that promoting sustained, positive behavioural change takes time. We believe the most effective way to achieve long-lasting leadership development results is to deliver programmes in bite-size chunks. This supports the on-going application of learning to real-time leadership challenges, enhancing day-to-day leadership impact.
The step up from management to leadership requires a new set of skills and behaviours that may differ from those which led to promotion into a more senior position. New leaders often struggle to ‘let go’ of the technical aspects of their role and make the mindset shift needed to successfully deliver results through others. Left unchallenged, these habits and behaviours can result in micromanagement, disengagement and underperformance. What’s more, in today’s ever-evolving working world, leaders at all levels benefit from an openness to learning and curiosity towards personal growth. Our leadership programmes open minds to new ways of thinking and support in the application of new behaviours to current leadership challenges, from increasing collaboration across a newly hybrid-working team to enhancing engagement within a multi-generational workforce.
Leadership programmes offer the opportunity to step back from day-to-day pressures and more consciously consider how to maximise your leadership impact. This safe space for reflection helps you to identify the habits and behaviours that are serving you well and where you would benefit most from making some changes. Setting real-time personal development goals throughout the programme will support you in the instant application of fresh ideas once back to work, constantly enhancing your leadership impact over time. Our coaches will offer positive challenge throughout the programme to help you stretch your comfort zone and embed new behaviours, step by step.
