MyLeadership has given me a real sense of self-awareness; a recognition that I know more than I thought, and I understand more than I think!
- Mrs Ozma Iqbal MIoL, Department for Work and Pensions
I feel tremendously privileged to be able to have access to such well thought through and wonderful knowledge, resources and analysis and be part of such a thriving network of people and ideas.
I’m deeply thankful and astonished this is available to me for the tiny amount I’ve paid for my yearly membership - it’s clearly extraordinary value for money and brings huge well-being benefit for me as well as professional.
- Alison Allmand-Smith
The digital badges and online accreditation process is first class - the interview with a real person is an excellent touch. First class team, keep up the good work!
- Jo McDowall MIoL, The London Coaching Space
Being a member of The Institute of Leadership means much more to me than a certificate and post-nominal letters, although those are helpful indicators to clients that I am investing in knowledge and skills that will benefit them. I am a better leader for my membership, and a more reflective practitioner.
- Cathi Shovlin FIoL, Founder, Human Revolutions
MyLeadership has inspired me to become a better leader! The tools and resources available enabled me to easily identify my knowledge and skill gaps. I was then able to work on improving these around my busy schedule, at a time that was convenient for me.
- Claire Tindale, Durham University
MyLeadership is a modern product, for a modern managerial environment, in a modern age.
- Phillip Tweedie,
To have the MyCareers service as part of the membership value proposition is invaluable, particularly at a time when people like myself maybe between jobs and haven’t dusted off their CV for a number of years. My CV was rated 60% optimal but with a few simple tweaks and adjustments I am now over 80% optimal.
- Paula Wilcock FIoL
Leadership to me is being curious about possibilities. The Institute website has really opened my leadership to new learning by exploring new thinking and skills. I would encourage all leaders to engage their teams in the programmes on offer through The Institute of Leadership.
- Steve Playford FIoL, Leadership and Wellbeing Consultant
Since joining the Institute of Leadership, I have experienced remarkable growth in such a short period of time. The wealth of resources available has been invaluable. I am taking full advantage of these benefits, and as a result, my confidence has grown. The support and practical tools have empowered me to enhance my leadership skills and professional development.
Joining the Institute of Leadership has been a transformative step in my career, and I am excited about the continued growth and opportunities ahead.
