The Self-Aware Leader

Most leaders have never had a structured space to examine their own leadership honestly. This half-day workshop provides exactly that — the gap between who you intend to be and who you actually are under pressure.

What you will leave with

Specific, actionable self-knowledge

Not generic leadership theory. A clear picture of how you lead, how it lands, and what to change first.

A precise understanding of your dominant leadership style and the conditions in which it helps or hinders

At least one named blind spot — supported by evidence from your actual leadership, not guesswork

Clarity on the gap between your intended leadership and your actual leadership

One specific 30-day commitment to change a leadership behaviour — named, observable, time-bound

Programme

Four modules — one half day

Module 1

Who Are You as a Leader?

Using the Johari Window, surface what you know about yourself, what you keep hidden, and what you suspect you cannot see.

Module 2

Blind Spots and Impact

The gap between intent and impact. What your team experiences that you are not aware of — and what that costs your leadership.

Module 3

Leadership Style in Practice

Using Goleman’s six leadership styles, identify your default, understand when it works and when it does not, and build a conscious second style.

Module 4

Commitments and Action Planning

One specific leadership commitment for the next 30 days, one feedback mechanism, and one named person who will tell you the truth.

Who this is for

This is for you if…

You are an SME owner, director or senior leader who has never had structured leadership development

You sense your leadership style is getting in the way but cannot pinpoint exactly how

You have received feedback that surprised you and want to understand it properly

You want to lead people more effectively without becoming someone you are not

“The most common leadership problem I see is not a lack of skill — it is a lack of accurate self-knowledge. Leaders who know how they show up can change what is not working. Leaders who do not, repeat the same patterns indefinitely.”

Richard Shaw — ILM Level 7 Executive Coach
