CALPAO is a modern, impactful and effective way for individuals to enhance their leadership capabilities. This programme acts as a Core Foundation of a comprehensive leadership development programme which recently won the international coveted Gold Medal for Executive Development from the EFMD​ "Excellence In Practice" awards, beating many leading international business schools and top leadership, organisational and talent development firms. This comprehensive programme brings a new approach based on a new science for a new age, and is unique in three key ways:

· It introduces Complexity Science, a new science based on mathematics and hard sciences such as physics, biology and chemistry, in a practical way that can be applied quickly.

· It extends leadership from 1.0 (traditional, frequently redefined, but still downwards done by leaders), through Leadership 2.0 (sideways, cross- boundary and outwards) and leadership 3.0 (upwards and strategic) to Leadership 4.0, a dynamic based on new science.

· The programme is not just a stand-alone workshop, although such an option is available for those who just want to raise awareness. It is a journey which supports on-the-job application via an on-line system, mentoring from qualified coaches, and co-coaching from peers in similar roles from different organisations.

Who will participate?



You are an ambitious middle to senior manager of people who has experience of leadership, looking to move it to the next level. You will join a selected group with similar experience from different industries so you can bring your current knowledge and learn how distinct, yet similar, leadership challenges are and how a new approach can be applied in a practical day-to-day way. The cohort you join will be encouraged to share learning from application after the workshop, to deepen knowledge and mastery.
