On The Level

It's the second of four career development training sessions that On The Level is running for #lgbtq+ staff at The University of Manchester. Today’s session is about Re-powering your personal & professional narrative from a queer perspective and was delivered by the wonderful Andrew Seedall. We were really pleased and humbled this morning to hear attendees talking about the impact of this programme and how it's helped them already to adjust elements of their professional lives to be more authentic, self confident and positive. We delivered a session on Overcoming barriers to career development a few weeks ago. Future sessions will cover: - Becoming a key LGBTQ+ person of influence. - Elevating your queer voice. Again, huge thanks to Banji Adewumi for her commitment to EDI and her leadership in bringing this unique programme to the University.

We love delivering this programme 😁

Exciting times at On The Level as we deliver Session 3 of our mentoring programme with senior leaders at The Lowry. We’ve designed this programme to empower and equip leaders with the confidence and skills to mentor colleagues across the organisation, helping them unlock their full potential. Our tailored programme consists of four impactful sessions: 1) An introduction to mentoring – setting the stage for success 2) Wrapping up positively – ensuring a meaningful experience 3) Building for success – today’s focus, helping leaders sustain progress 4) Evaluating the programme – measuring impact and growth It’s always a pleasure to collaborate with the brilliant Ed Moss, whose passion and expertise shine through every session. Looking forward to seeing how these leaders take our tools and ideas to support their mentees. #Mentoring #LeadershipDevelopment

I can’t believe it’s been 2 and a half years since I took the plunge and set up my own business, On The Level. Since then, I’ve been delighted to be able to work with some wonderful clients, including Greater Manchester Chamber, UK, 10GM, The University of Manchester, Groundswell Innovation, One+All, A Certified B Corporation George House Trust, Phoenix Digital, The Growth Company, THE BLACK UNITED REPRESENTATION NETWORK, She Leads For Legacy. In collaboration with truly brilliant people, I’ve been able to deliver: - quality training focused on supporting under-represented groups (LGBT, ethnic minority communities, women in leadership, and more) - training supporting leaders and future leaders to be the best they can be - research and recommendations on business design, membership proposition, and impact measurement - leadership community building, across sectors - 121 and focus group research on diversity and inclusion, skills and service delivery - event design, hosting and public speaking - project and programme design and management. Perhaps I should focus on one area (I know it’d make it all much easier to talk about). But then I wouldn’t get to do ALL of the things I love doing. While celebrating our achievements, I'm also looking ahead with enthusiasm, and have some time right now to take on a new project. So if you're seeking to drive positive change in your organisation, please give me a shout. https://lnkd.in/eiw7Q_JP
