We’d love you to get involved too – partner with us to make learning available to anyone making the world a better place.
LEARNING TO CHANGE THE WORLD
We believe that everyone can learn to change the world.
We provide transformational learning and development to help individuals, teams, organizations and communities build sustainable enterprises that achieve their social impact.
Programmes WITH IMPACT
LEADERSHIP
- The experience on these programmes is often reported as “transformational” for individuals, their teams and organizations. By developing their strengths and self-awareness alongside support from their peers, learners find the space to reflect, think differently, develop new strategies and move forward.
LEARNING
- By utilising the tools we use on programmes, such as coaching, facilitation and action learning, learners can embed new approaches and thinking in their organisations, enabling people at all levels to bring out the best in each other and create a culture of growth and development.
PRACTICAL, COLLABORATIVE LEARNING
- Developed and facilitated by social entrepreneurs, leaders and specialists
- Enables people to build on their strengths while finding solutions and insights
- Focuses on live situations and utilises the power of peer collaboration
- Elevates skills and confidence so that organizations are stronger and healthier
WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP
- By working in partnership with networks, intermediaries and member organizations we can tailor programmes to local needs and situations.
WORKING IN ORGANIZATIONS
- Bringing programmes directly into an organization, working with Board members, managers and staff, can enable dynamic, positive change as well as skills development.
APPROACH & METHODOLOGY
- Learning and development, not training – adds value in a strengths-based model, which learners find transformational – beyond just learning new information or skills. This creates space for learners to engage in personal development and effective learning that has a direct impact on their behaviours and organizational results
Practitioner-led learning-using local practitioners for delivery who can relate well to the needs and experiences of the learners.
THE CLP DIFFERENCE
- We adapt our world-class baseline programmes for each group depending on their context and stage of development.
- Many of our programmes are designed so they can be delivered either in person or through online facilitated sessions. Either way, it’ll be an engaging, interactive learning environment.
- We also know formal recognition of learning is important so many of our programmes are accredited by ILM or SCQF with qualifications assessed by work-based practice.
TESTIMONIALS
In-person cohort:
- “What I can say is that the program has had a lasting impact for the leaders of LEF. It has created a common language and experience – grounded in our work and hearts – not just a theory. The learning comes from the group – so it sticks and reinforces the culture of our organization – that of service.” Peter Frampton.
- “The Leadership Award Program has excited a culture of growth and learning for myself and my colleagues. The greatest impact is in the personal transformation and increased confidence in our own leadership abilities, however it also provides practical tools for empowering staff, and maximizing impacts in our community.” Elizabeth Bain, Graduate.
