Engaging Leadership was developed as a model through the world’s largest study of the nature of leadership, conducted over three years and initially published in 2001 by Professor Beverly Alimo-Metcalfe and Dr John Alban-Metcalfe. This original research involved over 6,500 people at all leadership levels of the private and public sectors. It has been widely extended since, to include a range of countries, as well as teams and organisational cultures. The study was deliberately inclusive by gender, ethnicity and other demographic characteristics to ensure that, unlike typical models, it does not either discriminate against, or unfairly favour, particular types of leader. #EngagingLeadership has been uniquely shown to have a direct cause-and-effect influence on increasing team performance, through longitudinal research using objective measures of success. Engaging Leaders not only focus on the way they interact with their direct reports, colleagues and line manager, but they also behave in ways that positively influences the effectiveness of the wider department and organisation culture, and lead across traditional boundaries. At the core, Engaging Leaders act with integrity, honesty and consistency.

Fire & Rescue Service Leadership 360 (FRS360) 🔥 🚒 We have been busy working with numerous Chief Fire Officers and OD teams across the UK and have created an evidence-based, FRS-specific 360-degree feedback tool which assesses the behaviours and competencies included in the National Fire Chiefs Council (NFCC) Leadership Framework. It is based on an adapted version of our widely proven Engaging Leadership model and augmented with FRS-specific professional and leadership requirements. In this way, it is not only addressing what the NFCC require but also what is needed of organisation leaders across the world today. Knowledge and experience of NFCC leadership framework. ✔️The behaviours the FRS360 assesses are proven in both research and practical case studies to help enhance diversity and inclusion. They form an essential foundation for the culture demanded by the Wilsher Report. ✔️They also reflect the Leading and Developing People Standards described by the Fire Standards Board. Tailored versions for different levels of leader 👩🏽🚒 We have created a bespoke middle manager FRS 360 version and a 👨🚒 Junior Officer FRS 360 version based on the specific requirements of these roles. In this way, the 360-degree feedback can be rolled out across the wider organisation in an optimally efficient and cost-effective way.

At Real World Group, we're deeply committed to fostering inclusive leadership, promoting wellbeing, and driving meaningful and sustainable culture change. Our collaborative approach ensures that we work hand-in-hand with our clients to achieve extraordinary results. Thank you to John Hooten, Chief Executive of Barnet Council for sharing his experience of working with us. "Real World Group has been instrumental in helping strengthen leadership and culture at Barnet Council over the past couple of years. They began working with me and the wider Corporate Leadership Team in helping to enhance our relationships and positive influence across the organisation. The team and individual coaching that lead consultant, Carmel McKeogh, provided was sensitive, thoughtful and insightful. We later commissioned Real World Group to help further align the wider senior leadership population with our vision for an even more engaged, connected and resident focused culture across the Council. Having Professor Beverly Alimo-Metcalfe as a guest speaker at one of our events was a great way to strengthen our shared vision of just how much individual leadership behaviour matters in serving the community to the best of our ability. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Real World Group to other organisations who are keen to maximise their leadership potential through applying their insightful psychometric tools and expert support."

What are the top 9 stress reducing board behaviours? The major influence on job-related stress at all levels is day-to-day leadership behaviour. When we translate the requirements identified by research into simple, comprehensible and actionable behaviours, they are within the power of every leader across the country, and our experience shows that they can be developed. For the culture to be right, influence starts at the very top. We must do more to examine boards, and support development of their leadership behaviour to enact more of the behaviours shown below, if we are to begin to effectively address organisational stress. #Boarddevelopment #Leadership #LeadershipBehaviours #Boards #Stress #Leadershipbehaviour #jobrelatedstress #organisationalstress #BoardBehaviour
