Business success or failure is dependent on many factors, but you are more likely to succeed: if you get the right people on the bus and keep them on board by cultivating a work environment where people feel supported and valued.
New accredited ILM Courses 2025
Dorothy McKee Consulting
“93% of employers say their managers perform better after taking an ILM qualification – proof that providing tailored, flexible, vocational training works.”
We are launching two new ILM courses in 2025.
In March we will launch the next open ILM course in Effective Workplace Coaching and Mentoring. The course is delivered by Dorothy McKee and Paul Tracey who are both experienced coaches and mentors with in-depth knowledge of the tools, techniques and approaches to effective coaching and mentoring.
“A skilled coach or mentor is an invaluable asset to any organisation. Through participation on this course many individuals and organisations have enhanced performance and developed positive workplace cultures”. ILM 2024
The participants on this experiential course are supported to develop skills as professional coaches and or mentors. The skills developed are the same skills required for effective leadership, effective listening, questioning, and feedback. Learners also become more self-aware and adopt proactive approaches to their ongoing development.
“In the modern business landscape, coaching skills have become indispensable. They offer a powerful means to develop talent, enhance leadership capabilities and drive organisational success”. ILM September 2024
The following companies use coaching and mentoring as an integral approach to their talent management strategies: Marks and Spencer, Novartis, Sensata Inc. Ernst and Young, and KPMG.
The programme is delivered through five highly interactive in person workshops and three remote group coaching sessions. Specialised individual support and coaching is also provided to ensure the successful completion of the course.
The second programme new to 2025 is the specially designed ILM level 7 Qualification Leadership and Management
