In line with FIP Development goal 6 - Leadership Development;
Pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists working anywhere in the world and in all sectors of professional provision and specialist areas including academics, research, industry or clinical practice in hospital or community settings.
Early career;- Leadership as a distributed concept; this programme prepares those with little or no line management responsibility for managing and leading others. The overall aim is to help you to engage and lead more effectively within teams and be seen as a leadership role model by colleagues, patients and customers, both external and internal.
Advanced & Specialist;- The Pharmacy Leadership Programme helps to develop those already in leadership positions to challenge what they already know and believe about their own leadership styles and leadership in general. This area of focus is designed to help such leaders determine what their department or organisation culture needs to be. Is leadership in your area of responsibility more about who you are, is it where you operate, is it about results, is it about how you lead or are all of these important? Where should the focus be? Supporting leaders to bring personal and organisational values to life;
Delivered to suit the needs of the learner cohort (Intake specific) with more specialised subject matter for experienced leaders, for example - challenging definitions of leadership and the assumptions about what leadership actually is or should be in your organisation in order to help you to lead at a higher level.
In general, across all cohorts, we will develop your self-awareness levels and build your Emotional Intelligence (E.Q.). We will discuss management versus leadership, leadership styles, identifying your preferred style and what that means, style flexibility, assessing line reports development levels, enhancing professional leadership communications, creating high performing teams, feedback and conducting difficult conversations, performance management, crisis leadership and working in multidisciplinary or 'flash' teams, using exemplary leadership components of Modelling, Inspiring, Challenging, Encouraging and Enabling.
Diagnostic questionnaires are used as pre-programme preparation for example to provide learners with personal leadership styles reports.
Learning is fun and highly interactive with discussions and references to pharmacy based case studies.
