Leading to Change is for everyone working in health here in Scotland. Leadership at all levels means that regardless of role, grade, specialty or board there is leadership development available for you. If your career stage is self leadership, team leadership, or leading organisations, we believe that your development is important and welcome you to explore what offers we have that are relevant to you.

Resources & Self Directed Learning

Leading to Change has a range of resources for you to explore in your own time and in your own way.

There are a range of offers that you can use in a way that suits your career stage, your interests and your preferred way of learning. From bite-sized learning to watch or read through to toolkits and study, we hope you can find something that suit your needs and your work patterns too.

“Many staff feel it’s not for them as they feel they are too junior or not in roles that are managing staff.  I tell them my story and share that it is indeed for them and it really is for anyone.”

Personalised Leadership Development that builds Knowledge, Skills and Confidence

“All of this gave me the confidence to apply for a new post and secure a secondment to a project management role. This was great confidence booster as I hadn’t been interviewed in 10 years, though I had interviewed others. I then used this experience and confidence to interview for and be successful in attaining my current role. From my personal development I felt I was able and ready to take these steps. I am so glad I took the chance, and the post will let me use so much of my skill set and learning.”

Coaching & Mentoring

Coaching and mentoring can make a difference in your self, team or organisational leadership at any stage of your career and in any role.
