THRIVE Leadership Program
Congratulations to Duncan Gill, Louise Keane, Maria Pinn and Samantha Lee for completing the THRIVE Leadership Program.
The THRIVE program is a multi-day course designed to help staff who are new to leadership positions develop their leadership and management skills. The program also involves the completion of the Hogan 360, with this being a tool to allow peers, staff and managers to rate your performance across various domains, thereby identifying strengths and areas for improvement. Finally, in addition to the useful course content, the program also involved the allocation of an experienced coach to work with us on an individual basis to develop our management skills, with this aspect being invaluable. I would thoroughly recommend the program to any staff who are moving into leadership positions and who wish to hone their leadership skills.

“ The Thrive program has run alongside my secondments into various leadership roles, providing a carefully struc- tured pathway for growth. From the outset, it focuses on self-analysis, which re- vealed to me the importance of understanding both strengths and weaknesses in shaping the kind of leader we become. Through this process, I ’ ve not only gained deeper insight into myself but also developed a greater appreciation for how others work. This has enabled me, as a leader, to empower those around me in their own journeys. Thrive has been an invaluable springboard into leadership, and I would high- ly recommend it to anyone considering or already work- ing in leadership roles. ”
