Leadership for All
Leadership for All
What is it and Who is it for? The Mary Seacole Programme is a highly successful and nationally recognised development programme for first time leaders in health and care. The Mary Seacole Local programme aims to support leadership development in each of our North West regional footprints, building a richer talent pipeline of emergent leaders in the local health and care system. The programme is designed for those in their first formal leadership role, both clinical and non-clinical. It empowers NHS staff to turn their individual success into team success, and to champion compassionate patient care. To be eligible for the programme, delegates need to have line management responsibilities or the ability to undergo a stretch opportunity to cover such responsibilities whilst on the programme. Programme delivery and structure: Taking place over 6 months, the programme adopts a blended delivery approach that includes: 100 hours of online study, which includes a virtual campus with interactive content, films, discussion forums and online resources. 3 face-to-face workshops, working with an expert facilitator. 12 modules covering leadership fundamentals, fundamentals of finance, recruitment and selection, fundamentals of HR, appraisals and annual review. A single written assignment at the end, asking participants to reflect on their leadership impact.
How to access the local programme: The NHS North West Leadership Academy supports funding for this localised programme, and funds the central licence so that staff from our member organisations can access it at a subsidised rate. If you are interested in pursuing the local programme, we can provide opportunities to access it via host organisations within your footprint at a subsidised rate of £150 per delegate. Our host organisations within the North West region have created a community of local facilitators who will deliver the programme, bringing their knowledge of local health and care systems to further enhance learning. For more information on upcoming cohorts and hosts, please visit our website or contact: nwla.leadership@nhs.net .
“ The programme has been incredibly useful and beneficial to me, both in terms of leadership development and in helping me reflect more deeply on how I approach challenges in my role. The facilitation style made the sessions engaging, thought-provoking and genuinely enjoyable. I’ve taken away a number of practical tools and insights that I know will stay with me far beyond the programme.”
