Background
As a direct result of the success of other development inputs within Barclays, Call of the Wild were asked to design and deliver a leadership programme for the graduates from Barclays Finance Academy.
The Objectives
The primary objective was for each delegate to be able to recognise, and develop appropriate leadership behaviours and transfer these to the workplace.
The Programme
The programme was designed to take delegates outside of their normal comfort zones in a challenging, yet safe environment.
Several developmental inputs are utilised.
- Web-enabled learning
- Experiential Learning
- Project Work
- Post-programme Follow up
The programme allows delegates to become self-aware of their own leadership skills and provides a platform and support system to enable them to begin applying their learning to the work environment.
