		<h3>Description</h3>
		<p></p><p>The course supports leaders as they do two things. </p>
<ul>
<li>Harness the skills and energy of their people</li>
<li>Reduce the negative effects of over-centralization and micro-management.</li>
</ul>
<p>The content is designed to be thought-provoking and challenge ideas about the purpose of leadership.  It draws its inspiration from the concept of Mission Leadership, an idea which has its roots in military and emergency service leadership.  In Mission Leadership groups and individuals working for a leader are encouraged fully to understand the aims of their organization and their own critical role within it. As a result, they feel confident to act on their own initiative to achieve the mission. </p>
<p>The course is ideal for those who want to encourage initiative and decentralisation of authority and responsibility.</p>
<p>Join this course to engage with other leaders in discussing and developing the art of leadership. Develop new ideas, processes and assumptions with which to free up the people you lead and 'get stuff done'.</p>
<p><strong>Available as private Face to Face and virtual sessions (max 12 delegates) - £1,305 Plus VAT</strong></p>

		<h3>Modules/Lessons</h3>
		<p></p><p><strong>Module 1: The Theory</strong></p>
<p>What are we meant to be doing?  Working out the outputs.</p>
<p>Giving clear direction on what people should be doing.</p>
<p>Freeing people to do their best work.</p>
<p>Taking risks with people.</p>
<p>Developing people.</p>
<p><strong>Module 2: Making it Happen</strong></p>
<p>Practice giving Mission based instructions</p>
<p>Measuring success.</p>
<p>Supporting your people.</p>
<p>Why now? </p>
<p>Most organisations naturally respond to stress by centralizing power and authority. The greater the risks and the pressures, the more leaders feel that the only people they can trust to 'get stuff done' are themselves.  Eventually, those same leaders buckle under the stress because, it always turns out, that the boss cannot do it all.</p>
<p>During 2023 huge economic pressures will fight with the impacts of social, cultural and technological change to put a constant stream of new challenges on the shoulders of leaders.  There has probable never been a time when bosses feel under more pressure.  As a result the damaging effects of over-centralisation have never been more relevant.  Now is the moment to take some time and ask yourself, how can I make better use of my people?</p>
<p>Benefits?</p>
<p>Free yourself of the tendency to micro-manage.  You know you shouldn't do it.  Find a practical way to stop.</p>
<p>Help the people you lead to take responsibility, use their initiative and flourish as future leaders of your organization.</p>
<p>How?</p>
<p>Suitable for all leaders, but particularly those involved in complex operations and with large numbers of critical groups and individuals who must co-operate in pursuit of an overall goal.</p>
<p>Learn how to:</p>
<ul>
<li>give clear mission oriented instructions and to</li>
<li>give your people confidence that they can act on their initiative and with your support</li>
<li>manage the risk that results from giving your people their freedom to act</li>
</ul>
<p>Learn how to enable your people to:</p>
<ul>
<li>understand the mission and embrace their part in it</li>
<li>use their initiative and to take responsibility for their actions</li>
<li>build their confidence and independence</li>
<li>and manage their risk and that of the whole organization</li>
</ul>

Strategic planning is often perceived as being difficult and requiring specialist skills - and also as being too challenging or lacking value when the future is so uncertain; leaders can often find it difficult to know how best to go about strategic planning in their organisation, and how to ensure that strategy is managed successfully.

In this Strategy Insights Masterclass we will start from 'first principles' and explore what strategic planning is really about and how to approach it effectively (including how to consider the uncertainty of the future). The aim is to stimulate your thinking about what might be the right approach to strategic planning in your organisation (every organisation is different!); the Masterclass will be participative, with opportunities to work and share ideas with other delegates (without disclosing any organisational confidences).
[This Masterclass has been given previously for specific groups, and given the feedback from participants is now being made available for open booking.]

Untangle your Data Governance issue and collaborate with your peers during this one-day Mastermind
Discuss Data Governance approaches with people who get it
Are you struggling with a Data Governance issue and wish you had a team of other Data Governance professionals you could bounce it around with?
You’ve done Data Governance training and you know what you’re focusing on. While your team is supportive, you spend a lot of time dealing with, and driving forward, culture change, managing stakeholders, and fielding questions from people who have their own priorities and now need to do this ‘Data Governance stuff’ on top. 
It would be nice, once in a while, to have a conversation about how to achieve something free from internal issues. You want to talk about best practices and get some alternative ideas.
That’s what my Data Governance Mastermind gives you: space to reflect with the support of your peers and practical solutions you can implement.
What is a mastermind?
Mastermind groups are the definition of ‘sharing is caring’. It’s you and your fellow peers – people who do what you do - gathering to brainstorm, problem solve, set goals and be each other’s support network.
At the Data Governance Mastermind, you will meet and learn from other people implementing Data Governance initiatives. 
It’s a one-day event, on Zoom. One of the benefits of attending is you’ll get 30 minutes in the ‘hot seat’ where you can share something you’re struggling with and get input from the group. 
What you can expect during the day
Discussions about different aspects of Data Governance and the opportunity to share what’s worked for you.
Tailored advice specific to your situation from me.
Insights from other people implementing Data Governance about what’s worked for them, what hasn’t worked, and how they have tackled issues.
30 minutes in the hot seat so you can share something you need help with and get practical suggestions from the rest of the delegates.
Time to reflect and share learnings from discussions so you have your key takeaways written down, ready to take back to work with you.
Get to know other Data Governance professionals and build a support network
Get an action plan and confidence to take your next steps with Data Governance
Get ready to discover new ways of approaching your Data Governance challenges, while getting to know professionals from a range of industries.
You will:
Get a clear action plan to take away with you to tackle your specific Data Governance issues.
Develop a wider network of supportive Data Governance professionals, people got your back and will be available to continue to network and ask advice or in the future.
Leave with the confidence that you're not alone in tackling these issues. There are other people going through similar experiences that are willing to help you out.
Is attending a Mastermind right for me? 
Every individual's Data Governance journey is unique. Take my scorecard to determine if my Mastermind programme is the right fit for you and will effectively support your specific needs. You can also find out more about the day on my website.

Laura is looking for a book you can&rsquo;t wait to talk to someone about, in the same way as a new film or the latest release on Netflix. A book that engrosses her from the first page to the last, desperate for someone she knows to read so they can discuss as soon as possible.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">It will always be an original hook that draws Laura in, a whole concept that can be summed up in one line that immediately stops her in my tracks and makes her think.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Character and voice is also crucial. Laura is a huge fan of Mick Herron&rsquo;s Jackson Lamb, Richard Osman&rsquo;s <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Thursday Murder Club</em> cast and Lynda La Plante&rsquo;s Jane Tennison. She would really love to see more strong, memorable women in crime. In bookclub fiction, voices that have stayed with her are Adduni in <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Girl With The Louding Voice</em>, Cyril in <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Heart&rsquo;s Invisible Furies</em> and Molly in <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Maid</em>. Recently, Kitty in <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">How To Kill Men and Get Away With It</em> had Laura secretly rooting for her serial killer antics.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Laura loves to be engrossed by a pacy, twisty, surprising plot. It doesn&rsquo;t need to be overly complex &ndash; sometimes the simplest ideas are the best. She wants to be thrown curveballs she never saw coming and be kept guessing until the last page. Books Laura has devoured are <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Nightwatching, The Housemaid</em>, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Last Mrs Parrish</em>, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Fourth Wing</em>, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">None of This is True</em> and<em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">&nbsp;American Dirt</em>.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Books that play with genre also capture Laura.

LOOKING FOR: ADULT FICTION
Laura studied law at university and spent over 20 years at Virgin Atlantic which allowed her to indulge her passion for reading whilst travelling.
On deciding to pursue a career in publishing, Laura joined the Darley Anderson Agency where she worked across the Women’s Fiction list, reading submissions, handling contracts and supporting authors on their path to publication and beyond.
She co-founded Greenstone Literary with Tanera Simons in 2024 and is excited to build a list of authors.
Laura is looking for commercial crime, thriller, suspense, bookclub, historical and romance fiction as well as select non-fiction.
Above everything she wants to be entertained. Laura is looking for a book you can’t wait to talk to someone about, in the same way as a new film or the latest release on Netflix. A book that engrosses her from the first page to the last, desperate for someone she knows to read so they can discuss as soon as possible.
It will always be an original hook that draws Laura in, a whole concept that can be summed up in one line that immediately stops her in my tracks and makes her think.
Character and voice is also crucial. Laura is a huge fan of Mick Herron’s Jackson Lamb, Richard Osman’s Thursday Murder Club cast and Lynda La Plante’s Jane Tennison. She would really love to see more strong, memorable women in crime. In bookclub fiction, voices that have stayed with her are Adduni in The Girl With The Louding Voice, Cyril in The Heart’s Invisible Furies and Molly in The Maid. Recently, Kitty in How To Kill Men and Get Away With It had Laura secretly rooting for her serial killer antics.
Laura loves to be engrossed by a pacy, twisty, surprising plot. It doesn’t need to be overly complex – sometimes the simplest ideas are the best. She wants to be thrown curveballs she never saw coming and be kept guessing until the last page. Books Laura has devoured are Nightwatching, The Housemaid, The Last Mrs Parrish, Fourth Wing, None of This is True and American Dirt.
Books that play with genre also capture Laura. Novels such as Wrong Place, Wrong Time which combined a crime mystery and the story of a mother’s love with a speculative element and The Time Traveller’s Wife, a high-concept love story which crossed time and age.
Laura is a huge fan of true crime and would love to read a fiction version of podcasts she has been gripped by. She really enjoys cold cases being reopened as a result of new evidence or technology which exposes past injustices such as on Bone Valley, In The Dark or Who Killed Emma? She is particularly drawn to stories of deep deception or ‘scams’ such as those by Anna Delvey or Coco Berthmann, Tinder Swindler or Fyre Festival. Laura is always intrigued by anything involving investigation into cults, such as in BBC Sound’s World of Secrets.
She also loves nothing more than sobbing her heart out over a book and being left emotionally wrung-out! Whether it be a devastating historical tragedy or star-crossed lovers torn apart by destiny. Books that have broken her heart include The Bridges of Madison County, The Kite Runner, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, Birdsong, My Sister’s Keeper, Cilka’s Journey and Four Winds.
In non-fiction, Laura is looking for an untold story or perspective or an unexplored area where you have expertise or real-life experience. As a reader of non-fiction she wants to be engaged in a relatable, accessible way. She loved the evocative settings and personal journeys in The Salt Path and The Wild Other. The laugh-out-loud More Than A Woman had her ordering this for many friends. Three Women and Educated are brilliant examples of non-fiction books that read like fiction. The awe-inspiring Do No Harm stayed with Laura long after reading. 
Laura is not looking for poetry, novellas, screenplays, or children’s books.
Laura would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 page synopsis and the first 5,000 words of your completed manuscript in a single word document.
(In addition to the paid sessions, Laura is kindly offering one free session for low income/under-represented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print). 
By booking you understand you need to conduct an internet connection test with I Am In Print prior to the event. You also agree to email your material in one document to reach I Am In Print by the stated submission deadline and note that I Am In Print take no responsibility for the advice received during your agent meeting.
The submission deadline is: Thursday 12 September 2024
