Leadership training and development with a difference

We want to create a society where it's normal for the new generation of leaders (and existing ones) to lead their teams with compassion, empathy, drive and enthusiasm and to not feel trapped by the old ways of leadership that no longer work.

We know we can make a bigger impact by helping other people, like you, shift the perspective of your industry and I want to give you the tools to engage your teams further with The Ultimate Leadership Training Methods.

Why Ultimate Leadership Training Ltd?

We challenge leaders in the way they think and help them reflect on how they currently lead themselves and their teams - Please don't hesitate to contact us to discuss your training goals

All our training sessions are action focused and it’s these actions we start with before we write and deliver the sessions. Our leadership development courses and programs aren’t tick box exercise or a day out of the office. At the end of each session goals are set and these are monitored throughout the month after the training by the learner’s line manager and the tutor if it’s a longer program.

If you concentrate on the performance the results take care of themselves.

Performance, of course, will be at a higher level if the values of both the business and those that work for it are aligned (Ben-Hint Davies)…

…and that’s what we do, we concentrate on the performance of each individual realising that they are all at different stages of their journey.

It’s a journey that begins with emotional intelligence and increasing the self-awareness of your people and leads to real breakthroughs in the success of your organisation – and that’s why the ultimate leadership training methods are different. It’s also worth mentioning that our course and program tutors were leaders first and tutors/trainers second - they are all successful business leaders in their own right, who now train others to do the same.

We all teach from bloody nose experience, not ivory tower philosophy!

Why we're different

When your people truly understand themselves, the potential of your business goes through the roof. Think about it – people can only make the best of the strengths they’ve already got, and work on facing their challenges, if they really know what those are - and that’s where we come in.

The future growth of your business and your teams depends on your managers and leadership teams having and developing a better understanding of themselves, how they work and how they think. If you think about it your people will only make the best of their strengths they already have and work on the challenges they face (and will face) once they discover what they are – and that’s where we and emotional intelligence come in. Every session has the following pillars embedded into them:

• Self-Awareness
• Self-Motivation
• Self-Regulation
• Empathy
• Social Skills

Also embedded are the five elements of self-regulation which are: self-control, trustworthiness, conscientiousness, adaptability and innovation.

It is only when your team members develop their emotional intelligence and honestly look within themselves that they can start to ask harder and harder questions:

“Is it the right thing for the team”?

"What one thing can I do to make your role more successful?"

“What kind of leader am I now, and how can I become a better one”?

“What are my emotions, how do they affect others and my decisions and how can I control them”

During our 12-month action focused leadership training program (that we either deliver or sell to you under license) your leaders, by working alongside and listening to their peers and tutor, begin to see themselves more clearly. They begin to develop goals and achieve actions they set themselves, not just in the month after the training as mentioned previously but throughout the year and beyond – they learn and implement new habits - they change!

Talking of change that is also a continual message throughout the program, their change management skills become second to none.

That’s why we are different. Our mission is to create a society where it's normal for the new generation of leaders (and existing ones) to lead their teams with compassion, empathy, drive and enthusiasm and the transformational power of self-awareness will improve the effectiveness of your team in the long term and that’s our vision:

Effective long-term development of businesses and their people

A lot of learning and development providers that we have met and some that we have worked for and with focus on the theory, the methodology and philosophies. We know this is important stuff, but it's our people centric action focused approach that creates real breakthroughs for your individuals and teams.

Only by increasing the emotional intelligence of every team member (starting with the managers and leadership teams) will your business or organisation see long term improvements in engagement, productivity, teamwork, staff retention and customer/client satisfaction.

Master the knowledge + Implement the actions = Evolution and momentum

Master the knowledge

Self-awareness is the beginning of every successful physical and mental journey we take, so our first step is to help everyone in your business (at every level) understand themselves and others in a way they may not have considered before.

We achieve this by using our own business management and leadership experiences (both positive and negative), effective models that we have developed ourselves, for example our modern communication model and action focused change management model. We use DISC psychometric testing, emotional intelligence testing, conflict management assessments and a time management assessment paper to name a few – all exclusive to our training and development courses - most of which we designed.

Implement actions

…then we move to the implementation of actions. We appreciate that every person, business and/or organisation are very different and it’s because of this we look at how each person can implement the actions and the changes necessary to move themselves and their team forward. We don’t try to re-invent the wheel or ask your team members to move mountains.

At the beginning of any year long program we ask everyone to visualise what their future will look like in one year. We then work with them to identify 12 monthly steps for them to get there. These steps are monitored and appraised at the beginning of each session and WOW. The results and impact on the team and business are staggering – better than any other training session out there that we’ve seen.

Evolution and momentum

…and the power is in the continual evolution and momentum. Once we have the line managers support, we can guarantee the changes (and more) originally discussed in our ‘fact finding day’ because these are evaluated by our trainers as they progress. And it doesn’t stop when we stop. We provide tools that promote continuous use of the knowledge gained for the long term growth of that individual.

Our values

Our values aren’t just words on the wall, in fact they aren’t written anywhere but below. Our values are the beating pulse of who we are and have always been present in all that we have done. You can see and feel their existence in the testimonials we receive and the successes of the business we have managed, owned and trained.

Integrity. We will show a consistent and uncompromising adherence to strong moral and ethical principles and values. In ethics, integrity is regarded as the honesty and truthfulness or accuracy of our actions.

Loyalty. We devote ourselves to you and your team of learners, their development and their future impact on the business and/or organisation.

Team first. When you agree to use our services, we become part of your team.

Respect. We take personal responsibility, value differences, and build open, honest, and respectful relationships with everyone we come into contact with.

Work ethic. Our work ethic is second to none. We will exceed all expectations in everything that we do and help our clients achieve their goal of creating a high performance culture.

Enjoyment. We love what we do and have done, and this shines through in everything that we do. Our positivity is infectious and we appreciate that people learn when they are enjoying the topic
