WIDENING LEADERSHIP OPPORTUNITY

Talent exists everywhere.
Opportunity doesn’t always follow.

We help organisations and employee networks develop and progress underrepresented talent, including LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent colleagues.

Discuss leadership opportunity ↗

Developing people.
Creating the conditions to progress.

Our approach builds leadership capability while helping organisations create the conditions in which more people can contribute, influence and progress.

THE INDIVIDUAL

Confidence, contribution and leadership.

Practical development helps people understand how their behaviour affects others, have the conversations that matter and put new approaches into practice.

THE ORGANISATION

Opportunity needs support around it.

Developing individuals is only part of the work. We also explore how leaders and the organisation can create the conditions for people to contribute and progress.

SOCIALLY INTELLIGENT LEADERSHIP

Deeply human. Highly practical.

We get to know your business and agree where development can make the biggest difference. Learning is built around practical experience, new behaviours and workplace application, with leaders involved in reinforcing progress.

Start with the questions that matter.

  • Whose contribution or potential is not being fully recognised?
  • What is getting in the way of people influencing and progressing?
  • What needs to change in leadership behaviour, as well as individual capability?
  • What would meaningful progress look like in your organisation?

Led by Jamie Summers, The Skills Farm combines over 20 years of developing leaders with firsthand experience of leading commercial teams and being accountable for results.

This work is shaped around your organisation and the people involved. A focused pilot or longer term partnership can be scoped around the priorities we agree together.

Let’s start with a conversation.

Tell Jamie what you want to achieve for your people. You do not need a completed brief or a programme already in mind.
