working hand in hand with the police service

We recognise that in the police service, you are faced with the need for fair and effective leadership and management that promotes public confidence through a strong visible presence. 
 
You also aim to provide dynamic, robust leadership and direction that guide the development of services and that satisfy the diverse communities you serve and deliver the improvements required by the modernisation agenda.
 
the aspire centre for leadership & management understand that your interests lie not only in effective, efficient and economic operational management and crime prevention, but also in developing and sustaining  a number of productive relationships and partnerships that meet the needs and requirements of your diverse stakeholders.
 
We will partner you to develop effective leadership and management which will enable you to create, communicate and implement strategies that reflect these current and other future challenges.
 
Programmes may be non-accredited or attract nationally recognised qualifications or development awards. In order to provide quality, choice and flexibility, we work with the UK’s two main national and international providers of leadership, management, coaching and mentoring qualifications along with a number of higher education institutions.

how innovative leaders can give you the high performance edge  

You need leaders who are highly motivated and empowered to provide excellent service delivery.  Those who will build a flexible, transparent and accountable culture, responsive to your customers’ needs.  People who not only respond to the challenges of the reform and modernisation agendas, but also deliver the energetic, transformational leadership sought by your diverse communities and stakeholders.
 
You also seek to enhance public confidence whilst increasing the capacity, capability and productivity of your officers, staff and resources.
 
We have extensive experience to meet the development needs of leaders at all levels and departments – working with leaders from those aspiring to their first leadership role to commanders or heads of service; from lone workers to those with wider teams.
 
All aspire’s programmes promote high impact leadership, enabling your leaders to drive change and efficiencies; to deliver high performance and excellence. We achieve this through giving you practical tools, techniques and influencing behaviours that will help you meet the requirements of the best value agenda.
 
Your leadership development needs can be satisfied through a partnership approach with aspire to design uniquely tailored programmes.

how coaching helps you get the most from your greatest asset

“Your people are your greatest asset” the saying goes. Like most assets, they need investment to be able to achieve their maximum potential – support, inspiration, encouragement and development.
 
Sometimes the coaching and mentoring activities you require are part of a larger leadership or management development programme. More often you will need them to be integral elements of leadership and management roles within your service.
 
Whether you seek to build a core of coaching specialists, or need one to one development for your senior ranks or key staff, aspire can provide flexible, sustainable solutions that will unlock the potential in your organisation.
 
You will find improved performance, motivation and enthusiasm not only in the participants, but also those around them.
 
Your requirement for coaching and mentoring activities at all levels can be satisfied by our highly experienced team.
 
Coaching and mentoring may also be provided concurrent with other leadership and management programmes, embedding new behaviours, skills and enhanced performance.
 
Coach and mentor development programmes may be non-accredited or attract nationally recognised qualifications or development awards.
