working hand in hand with public and third sector services
You are not only in the front line but you are also the target of opinions and views from a wide range of stakeholders and interested parties, many of whom might have a significant emotional connection to the activities in which you are involved.
Your interests lie in managing the demands of a diverse range of often disadvantaged clients, whilst delivering high quality and efficient services. All at the same time as motivating and developing your people!
We will partner you to develop effective leadership and management which enables you to create, communicate and implement strategies that reflect current and future challenges.

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 organisation.
Whether you seek to build a core of coaching specialists, or need one to one development for your key staff, aspire can provide flexible, sustainable solutions that will unlock the potential in your teams.
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 facilitators.
Coaching and mentoring may also be provided concurrent with other leadership and management programmes, embedding new behaviours and skills for enhanced quality and service delivery.
Coaching and mentoring development programmes may be non-accredited or attract nationally recognised qualifications or development awards.

why higher education is the key to high performance, efficient and high quality yet cost effective service solutions
In order to provide quality, choice and flexibility, aspire work in partnership with a number of highly respected universities.
Foundation and honours degree programmes in leadership & management may be tailored to your authority’s needs and are validated by our partner universities. They offer the opportunity for delivery on your own premises and even using contributions from your own specialists and experts.
These modular programmes offer a vehicle for your staff to gain a higher education qualification whatever their previous qualifications may be.
An additional benefit of our partnership with these higher education institutions is the potential for your future progression to honours, masters and even doctorate levels.
