Why this course is important

Scenarios for Use

Impact is designed for leaders operating beyond day-to-day management who are expected to influence direction, performance and outcomes across teams or functions. It is particularly effective where organisations want to strengthen strategic capability, improve decision-making at senior levels and ensure leaders can drive results through influence rather than authority.

The Risk We Address

Without strong strategic leadership, organisations can suffer from siloed thinking, slow or reactive decision-making and misalignment between strategy and execution. Impact addresses the risks of leaders becoming operationally absorbed, struggling to influence across boundaries, or failing to translate strategy into sustained performance and measurable outcomes.

Skills and Knowledge Gained

Participants develop advanced capability in strategic thinking, organisational influence and performance leadership. They gain practical tools to make sound decisions in complex environments, lead change effectively and align people, process and performance to deliver lasting impact at an organisational level.

They get to know our business inside out. What I find with IED because of that long-term partnership is they're very quick and succinct at giving you a solution to a challenge you possibly didn't even know you had.

A Learner, Kettle Produce
We wanted our supervisors, wherever they are located, to be able to join a leadership development programme that would leave them motivated, engaged and enthusiastic about their role and working with Fugro. The feedback from supervisors has been superb, with people asking to join the programme, in such high numbers that sometimes we have had to find ways to make sure everyone was accommodated.
