The Future Leaders Programme 2024

Shaping leaders for a world in transition

Next available dates:

Future Leaders Programme 11 – starting 13 January 2025

Join us in equipping your leaders with the essential skills to thrive in a world moving towards net zero.

Ignite your leadership journey towards a sustainable future

The Future Leaders Programme is a nine-month, immersive experience that equips participants with essential leadership skills.

Participants will gain awareness, knowledge, and skills that can reduce risk, improve business plans, and maximise opportunities to increase profits. FLP graduates will have the skills to give you and your customers assurances that you are on the right track to a net zero economy.

In a world of unprecedented change, the Net Zero 2050 Future Leaders Programme prepares businesses for the future.

“The Future Leaders Programme was everything I wanted it to be and more, I have learnt valuable skills and tools to equip me to become a better leader. I also had the opportunity to meet new people on the same journey and work together to create something meaningful.”

Emily Robinson

Transformative outcomes and lasting benefits

On completion of the Future Leaders Programme participants will:

• have developed the self-awareness to be a more emotionally intelligent leader

• be equipped to empower others and lead with impact 

• have an action plan for ongoing leadership development beyond the programme

• network with cross-sector peers and deliver a project that contributes directly to achieving net zero by 2050.

Programme journey: From foundation to aspiration

Embark on a transformative journey through three phases: Foundation, Application, and Aspiration.

  • The Foundation phase will equip delegates with the mindset and the essential leadership skills to start being effective leaders right away.

    Over three months, delegates in cohorts of eight attend four highly-engaging interactive modules delivered virtually by a team of experienced facilitators, coaches, and psychologists. The content is accompanied by materials, reflective self-learning practice, and a one-to-one personal resilience session.

  • Starting with a residential Strategy Retreat, the Application phase invites delegates to undertake a project over six months.

    The Strategy Retreat invites participants to move from being a group of peers to being a team that delivers. At the residential event, participants will explore strategy and planning models, undertake Insights® profiling, participate in an outdoor adventure and begin working on their project together.

    For the following six months, the cohort is supported by monthly Leadership Mentoring Groups which can include site visits, talks and communications skills training. The Application phase culminates in a project presentation to a select audience or event.

  • Following graduation at the end of the Application phase, delegates will be part of a growing network of leaders who collaborate and assemble periodically to review progress towards net zero, challenge each other, and drive accountability.

‘‘I loved your programme because it was an opportunity to connect with other professionals. It was about shared experiences and knowledge.’’

Who is the Future Leaders Programme for?

The Future Leaders Programme is ideal for those in the early stages of their career and recognised for leadership potential in the next 5-10 years (if they are not there already).

To elevate their leadership capabilities, individuals would need to secure employer/sponsor support for a nine-month commitment.

Participants can be non-graduate, graduate or apprentice and can be working in the public, private, or third sector.

“The programme equipped me with the knowledge and real skills to lead in an evolving world, more than just the ideas of how it can be done. I wouldn’t be in my current role if I hadn’t been equipped to be a future leader.”

James Pritchard-Evans

Pioneering leadership for a sustainable tomorrow

The Future Leaders Programme will help your emerging leaders understand and prepare for what is already known on the journey to net zero. The programme will equip them to be able to keep ahead of the curve in an ever-changing world and it will ensure that your organisation has climate change savvy leaders, allowing customers and partners to do business in confidence.

Your emerging leaders think differently, their values are different, and they will be making decisions for your business in 5-10 years time. Investing in them now is an assurance of future competitive advantage.

Our mission:

We are equipping a generation of business leaders who are committed to driving change to deliver Net Zero by 2050.

Our vision:

That every business would have collaborative and innovative leaders who will reverse climate change.
