ELEVEN LEARNING METHODOLOGY

Developed by a group of neuroscientists, psychologists, psychotherapists and executive coaches, involving over 900 interviews with executive leaders, the ELEVEN leadership programme is centred on attributes instead of competencies and utilises multisensory adaptive learning specifically designed to provide real and sustained behavioural change.

It begins with a self-assessment of your thinking and learning preferences to create a personal learning pathway completely tailored to you. Delivered over 9 months, the programme architecture comprises targeted, interactive and experiential modules within the contexts of self, others and place to achieve meaningful personal and professional development.

WHAT WILL YOU GAIN FROM ELEVEN?

• A stronger sense of self, and what you stand for as a person and leader

• Insight into cognitive biases (including your own), how they impact behaviour, and the practical application of this insight to become a more effective leader.

• Improved communication and collaboration styles to help others achieve greater performance and job satisfaction.

• Insight into Human-Centred Design and practical applications for everyday leadership.

• Understanding of dynamic strategy and disruptive innovation, and the creation of dynamic leadership.

• Practical applications of the latest neuroscience research into personal and leadership behaviours, and the difference between management and leadership.

• Understanding of leadership in the context of an organisation, how culture and organisational strategy determine leadership style, and a leader’s role in creating cultural beliefs and behaviours.
