People moving from doing the work themselves to getting results through others.

COMMON QUESTIONS

What businesses want to know before we talk.

Clear answers to the practical questions about fit, format, delivery and investment.

Is the management training off the shelf?

No. The programme starts with a diagnostic day so the content, language and practice reflect your business, your managers and the performance change you need.

How many managers can take part?

One cohort includes up to 12 team leaders or managers. This keeps the sessions practical and gives everyone enough time to participate, practise and receive feedback.

How long does the programme take?

The core programme includes one diagnostic day and three practical development days. The delivery rhythm can be spaced around your operational needs so managers have time to apply what they learn.

Where can the programme be delivered?

The Skills Farm delivers across the UK, Europe and globally. Sessions can be delivered in person, online or through a blended approach.

How much does the programme cost?

The core programme is £6,600 for one cohort of up to 12 managers. There is no VAT. Travel and venue costs are quoted separately where required.

Is digital reinforcement included?

Lumenry is an optional addition and is quoted separately. It provides a branded digital learning home that supports managers before, between and after live sessions.
