Preparing Leaders for Change
ADASS is committed to supporting our members with their professional development. Delivered in partnership with Newton, we are delighted to launch the eighth year of our Accelerate programme.
We have been delighted with the feedback we have received from the previous cohorts; and despite the significant challenges of the last years, Accelerate continues to be seen as an essential development programme for those leaders who are overseeing or managing complex change programmes.
Accelerate supports senior leaders (working at the director or assistant director level) to develop the leadership capabilities required to oversee, or manage teams to deliver complex transformational change.
The programme, which involves four short residential modules over a 10-month period, starts in March every year.
Module 1: 19 -21st March (2 nights)
Module 2: 25 -26th June
Module 3: 17 -18th September
Module 4: 19-20th November
