"The programme has allowed me to look ahead and plan my future career."

“Myself and the team have found the course incredibly useful in terms of both individual development and also to build an effective team culture, breaking down some of the barriers of job roles and qualifications and developing the teams understanding of individual personality types. This understanding has then allowed us to consider adapting our behaviours to ensure we function as a successful team. The consultation skills learnt in the programme are aiding our teams to communicate more effectively with both colleagues and patients. Some of our pre-reg pharmacist students who undertook the course found the STAR technique particularly useful and timely, when applying for their band 6 positions, and have all been offered jobs (which I am sure comes down to their high-level performance at interviews thanks to the course)."

Why invest in the Curriculo Pharmacy Leadership Programme?

Leadership is a potentially contested topic with a variety of definitions and understandings. How we frame and define 'leadership' has implications for the recruitment and development of leaders and how their performance is measured and rewarded. What does 'good' or 'effective' leadership actually mean in your world?

This programme challenges your thinking about what leadership means to you and your organisational context and develops your level of self-awareness and skills enabling you to consciously assess the needs of those who follow you and decide how directive or supportive your leadership style should be across different tasks, scenarios and with different people.

Underpinning our exploration of leadership, is the notion that Emotional Intelligence (E.Q.) is a critical component of efficacy. Having well defined skills of self-awareness, self, management, social awareness and relationship management skills is what sets exceptional leaders apart from their contemporaries. In fact research indicates that individuals with high I.Q.'s and lower E.Q. levels, often end up in organisations working for people with lower I.Q.'s and higher E.Q.'s.

This programme will give you the knowledge and skills to demonstrate leadership ability regardless of your experience level or function with pharmacy or pharmaceutical science practice.
