Leaders. Teams.

We’ve created a framework for the development of leadership which is unique.

The balance of capability of our four cores - SELF, GROUPS and TEAMS, LEADERSHIP, and PURPOSE - is based on years of doctoral research and proven results.

This enables us to equip your leaders with the skills, knowledge and capabilities that will accelerate their ability to lead with excellence in a world of perpetual change.

Self

We explore the 'Self' in leaders.

Understanding your values, strengths and persona is the foundation of effective leadership.

Through 'strengths-based' psychometric profiling, we help you to understand your Core Qualities and the associated blind-spots and limitations that often come with them, giving you detailed insight into your super-powers and what happens when they are overdone.

Self-care and regulation is critical to leading successfully. This is why we place real significance in developing authenticity, mindfulness and resilience.

Further topics such as managing stress and the power of communication ensure your leadership is grounded in clarity, confidence and purpose.

‘Know yourself’

Groups and Teams

Our second focus is on developing the knowledge to lead high performing groups and teams.

You’ll explore what the differences are between groups and teams, and how the interdependence of actual work requirements defines the leadership style and behaviours needed. 

We’ll explain the detail behind team and group development, cohesiveness, and identity, giving you the ability to accelerate or fix performance.  

We’ll explore cross-cultural collaboration and how to avoid common pitfalls like groupthink.

We place strong emphasis on creating purposeful, cohesive teams that function effectively across different environments.

We deep dive into leadership theories, systems thinking and the practical skills to lead inclusively and inspire meaningful change in complex organisations.

Purpose

Purpose is the central core that connect all others.

Without purpose, inspiring excellence in organisations and individuals is impossible. 

Aligning corporate, organisational and individual purpose is complex, especially when considering the personal motivation and drivers of individuals.

Understanding ‘shared purpose’ is crucial for teamwork and outcomes. But how often is this assumed rather than actively created?

Kielder will work with you to identify purpose at all levels. This has to be aligned - vertically and horizontally - to ensure your people and organisation are connected in their collective ‘Why?’

‘Connected Motivation’

Why choose us?

We have developed a holistic approach to developing leadership knowledge and leaders, based on Self, Teams, Leadership and Purpose.

Built on doctoral research – not just theory. We use proprietary, field-tested frameworks not found anywhere else.

We delve deep beyond buzzwords, developing authentic leadership and self-awareness where leaders learn to understand themselves, and inspire willing followers through Trust, Vision and Authenticity.

We use advanced psychologically-informed and evidence-based approach for leadership development.

We differentiate between “groups” and “teams” as they have different functions and properties, and need leading in different ways.  This is HUGELY important, and goes a long way to explaining why traditional leadership training approaches often have limited long-term impact. 

We offer bespoke full-spectrum support, from C-Suite to individual contributors, where programmes are aligned to organisational goals.
