Effective leadership development starts with a realistic view of current performance. This package focuses on planning, undertaking and reflecting on personal and professional development activities, with leadership capability as its central theme. Learners examine their strengths and development needs against personal, professional and organisational leadership competencies. The emphasis is on evidence of what they can demonstrate in their role, rather than relying on confidence, intentions or self-image.
The self-assessment content distinguishes observable leadership skills from the competencies used to judge effective performance in a particular context. It considers how skills gaps affect current goals, organisational priorities and readiness for future responsibilities, including succession planning. Learners then explore how to formulate specific, measurable targets across short-, medium- and long-term timeframes. Development is presented as a way to improve contribution to the team or organisation, while also supporting personal growth.
The action-planning content explains how to turn targets into scheduled development work. A personal and professional development plan links agreed targets to activities, timescales, resources, support and evidence of achievement. Examples include improving feedback skills, confidence in difficult conversations, meeting leadership and workload management. This practical focus helps learners distinguish a general intention to improve from a plan that specifies what will happen and how progress will be demonstrated.
The final part addresses reflection and continuous adjustment. Learners consider how to review achievements, distinguish completed activities from meaningful outcomes, and diagnose barriers such as time pressures, resistance from colleagues, changing workloads or reduced confidence. They explore how to review progress over different timescales and revise goals when personal or organisational priorities change. Together, these topics support a repeatable approach to development: assess capability, choose relevant targets, act on them and use evidence to refine the next steps.
Who it’s for
This package suits managers, team leaders and people preparing for leadership responsibilities who need to assess and develop their own capability. It is particularly relevant to learners connecting personal development with workplace performance and organisational priorities.
What’s covered
Self-Review of Leadership Competencies and Skills Gaps
Compare evidence of current leadership performance with the competencies expected in a role. Identify strengths, development needs and specific skills gaps, and assess their implications for current goals, organisational contribution and succession planning.
Aligning Leadership Targets to Goals, Strategy and Growth
Connect development targets to personal goals, organisational priorities and future responsibilities. Set specific, measurable targets across short-, medium- and long-term timeframes so that development supports both personal growth and strategic needs.
Implementing Personal Development Plans Against Agreed Targets
Turn agreed targets into a practical plan with scheduled activities, timescales, resources, support and evidence of achievement. Explore how planned practice, feedback and deadlines can help translate development intentions into changes in workplace behaviour.
Reviewing Performance, Barriers and Continuous Adjustment
Review evidence of progress and distinguish development activity from its actual outcomes. Diagnose practical, relational, organisational and personal barriers, then adjust goals and action plans in response to reflection and changing priorities.
