Role consultancy group for leaders of clinical services
An eight-month online group for leaders of clinical services across higher education, health, social care, and the public, voluntary or private sectors.
The pressure of the task, often emotionally charged, ethically demanding and shaped by limited resources, has a significant impact not only on staff and service delivery but also on the structure and leadership of the organisation. This group offers a confidential and reflective space to think about leadership in complex systems, where managing people, balancing competing demands and working with uncertainty are central to the role.
Our approach
This group provides space to pause, reflect, and make sense of the emotional and relational dynamics that impact your work, your leadership, and your wellbeing. The group does not hold clinical responsibility for any aspect of your work. The purpose is to support your leadership development, helping you strengthen your authority in role, stay connected to purpose, and lead with greater clarity, resilience, and care for yourself and others.
Drawing on systems psychodynamic thinking, role consultancy attends to the interplay between person, role, and system, recognising that challenges in leadership are rarely just personal or technical, but are deeply embedded in relational and systemic contexts.
