The senior management and HR team at AAB worked with ICAEW to customise the Developing Leadership in Practice (DLiP) programme for a select group of senior managers.

Holding it in-house meant the participants got more attention from the facilitators and allowed us to tailor the content to make sure it was in line with the firm’s objectives.

ICAEW solution

We worked on four key areas with delegates:

• Self-awareness – understanding their own behaviour and their impact on others.
• Goal setting – taking time out of the office to focus on their future and personal goals.
• Influencing skills – understanding how to influence internally and externally effectively.
• Support network – the opportunity to give feedback in a confidential environment.

“Each participant came away feeling confident they knew how to lead the business, which was one of our main objectives and made the programme a huge success," says Karen Stewart, HR Director at AAB LLP.
