NHS CLN – EFCCL Programme - Day 4 Reviews

You can see a real mixture in my star ratings. The facilitation was excellent. The content was good and has really prompted me to consider my leadership strengths, how I coach others and the impact I have on my team. For me, the online format wasn't necessarily what I would recommend to others. I tend to thrive when there are face-to-face interactions and I should have thought about that when booking the course. Nevertheless, I learned a lot and I am very grateful for the experience.

This was a really good introductory course to leadership. It introduced some new concepts and also provided a good refresher of previously known concepts. Although the virtual format was quite hard work at times, Rachael was a great facilitator, and the use of breakout rooms assisted in making the course personalised.

My initial objective was to learn how to lead a team, but the training does not tell you how to lead a team but gives you the tools to adapt. which is good but takes time to adapt and practicalise

It was a brilliant day, but I feel I would have gotten more out of the day or indeed the whole course if at least some of it had been face to face.

Good course, would prefer it in a hybrid way so some in person time so group forms better and networks more.

I think the structure of the course is well formed, I felt that we all communicated well and were kept involved with the topic and very much part of the group. The pre-work was sometimes a lot to properly take in and feel that this could have been built into the course to allow time to really understand and reflect on the subject content. Working in a busy team and working late / family time it was hard to find the time to complete it. Maybe have a section within the day where we read/watch the pre work then discuss it in our breakout rooms.
