Leaders with I.M.P.A.C.T

For good people doing great work.

Your managers are good people with the right intent. But they are often learning the hard way through trial and error.

 

That quietly erodes performance, productivity, retention and culture.

Strong managers are the vital link between your mission, strategy, people, performance and the communities you serve.

 

They play a pivotal role in culture, engagement and performance, as well as service delivery, as the conduit between your organisation and its people.

 

Managers either create the conditions for teams to thrive or become the bottleneck that prevents progress and impact. 

​

Yet manager engagement is in significant decline*, and many aren't receiving the development that could turn potential into performance, often due to a lack of time, budget and access to the right program.

Your people need the right development to bring out their best. 
 

​​​​​

​Leaders with IMPACT is a practical, proven pathway to develop confident, capable managers who can lead their teams and deliver your mission effectively.

Purpose-driven organisations have markedly different leadership challenges.

 

Your managers are often navigating complex community demands and dynamics with tight budgets and competing priorities, all while staying true to values that matter deeply.

I’m passionate about helping good people to build the confidence, capability and clarity they need to lead themselves and others well - especially when what they do matters so much.

​

Over many years, I have seen an enormous need that was going unmet. So, I decided to customise an affordable, accessible program specifically for the purpose, health and community sectors. It resonated immediately and we've since welcomed 110 participants from 12 organisations and it continues to go from strength to strength.​

What your people leaders will gain

Your managers will walk away with practical tools and frameworks to lead themselves and their people well, the confidence to build trust and give meaningful feedback, and the ability to navigate uncertainty without second-guessing every decision. It's the peer connections, though, that often prove most valuable: your leaders will build relationships with other managers who genuinely understand the unique pressures of leading in organisations where the work matters and the resources are tight.

What your organisation will gain

You'll develop a stronger leadership bench for overall performance and future succession planning.
 
Your leaders will spend less time firefighting or managing performance gaps because they have the tools to handle challenges proactively and build effective, thriving teams.
 
As the performance of each team lifts, the benefits to your organisation compound, and the impact on your community amplifies.

"The Leaders with IMPACT program has been an absolute highlight for me. I look forward to the sessions every month, as they truly make for the best Friday mornings. The content is consistently thought-provoking and brimming with easy-to-implement tips, shareable fact sheets, engaging videos, and practical advice not just for me, but for my entire team.

 

Sophie's facilitation skills are incredible. The blend of listening, participating, chatting, and sharing, along with the use of chat rooms, makes each session dynamic and engaging. I wholeheartedly recommend this course to anyone looking to refine their leadership skills."
