Programme courses
This programme involves the following courses (please note that this programme is under development and more courses will be added in the future):
Leadership – Personal Values and Beliefs
Personal values are broad goals that represent what is important to someone. Beliefs are thought constructs that people apply to themselves, others, the world or the future. Personal values and beliefs help to guide our behaviours and decisions we make. A person's beliefs can be positive or negative and true or untrue. When analysing beliefs by their polarity and accuracy one can see where improvements can be made in their lives. This can be done by reframing untrue beliefs and recognising negative, true beliefs as an opportunity to change.

Leadership – Coaching and Mentoring
Coaching and mentoring are both collaborative processes that assist individuals in reaching their full potential. Coaching is generally a shorter term relationship focused on an individual achieving performance driven goals. Mentoring is often an ongoing relationship where a more experienced individual works with someone less experienced on personal and professional growth. Coaching and mentoring both play an important role in personal and professional development in healthcare. This course will equip you with insights and practical skills to develop your effectiveness as both a coach and mentor as part of your portfolio of leadership skills.

Leadership – Effective Communication
Communication is an essential skill. This is especially true in a healthcare setting where patient-centred communication is vital in comprehensive patient care. Not all healthcare practitioners are skilled communicators and this can lead to patient mistrust, incorrect diagnosis and inadequate treatment. This course defines the key elements of communication and explores the qualities of effective communication and explains some common obstacles to communication. Finally communication models such as the awareness wheel and ladder of inference are introduced as tools to improve communication.
