Testimonials from previous attendees
"This course has exceeded my expectations so far. The modules are well organised, there are a lot of excellent resources, articles, videos, and examples. The forums are great, giving an opportunity for peer learning… I thought when I looked at the course outline before starting, that it was a lot of what I had covered before and didn’t expect it would be telling me anything new, but I discovered that a lot about myself and my thinking has changed over the last year, I am now reflecting on that and the impact on leadership style." - T. Donovan, Community Foundation for Ireland
"The materials and the way the programme is being run is excellent and hugely applicable and relevant for where we are currently. It has provided much food for thought in terms of our remote working, managing in this workspace, and how to ensure some of it is sustainable for a better post-COVID workplace. It is a time commitment, and it can be a challenge to keep on top of the materials. However, it is all very much worthwhile." - E. Bolger, formerly with The Wheel
