Social Leaders Cymru - Community Leader Rhyl

Discover and develop the fundamental skills and behaviours that can ensure success at a grassroots, community level. Get to know yourself, your unique purpose and the impact you have on others better, to improve communication skills and relationships, and prevent burnout and anxiety for yourself and your teams. Through these skills and a supportive network, the programme will empower you to develop revitalised, agile and resilient leadership, to manage through the cost of living crisis.

Boost your confidence in your leadership abilities to grow and scale your projects/organisations and ultimately impact. You'll start to develop into a self-actualised leader with the confidence and resilience to navigate complexity, uncertainty and change.

Meet other community leaders and develop a strengthened network of supportive peers. Investing in relationships with your cohort enables you to create a joined-up vision that can inspire and motivate others. Past cohorts have found the support they receive from their peers during and after the programme essential in their journey to becoming a better leader. We encourage the development of strong relations with your peers for long lasting advice, guidance, and friendship.

Take on challenges you are currently facing in your project or community with practical, long-lasting solutions.

A six-week hybrid learning course which uses a self-reflective model to guide participants through the core components of social leadership development.

Leadership workshops will provide focused and interactive sessions designed to enhance the leadership skills and capabilities of the Community Leader group. These workshops offer valuable insights, practical tools, and strategies to develop effective leadership practices. The workshops will be tailored to the particular and most pressing leadership needs of your cohort, and will cover a range of topics such as communication, decision-making, emotional intelligence, and strategic thinking, equipping leaders with the necessary skills to navigate the complex challenges of the social sector.

Peer Learning Circles will offer an opportunity to explore the modular content in more detail and you will be invited to use this space to share your own learning, reflections and insights around how you apply these capabilities to your own work and leadership with your cohort peers.

The peer learning circle space is designed to embody the idea that ‘Leaders Grow Leaders’.

This powerful personality profiling system provides a unique portrait of who you are, helping you increase your self-awareness, reveal hidden potential and help you understand how you behave under pressure. This includes a full-day training session.

The programme is heavily-steered by participants, and the change they want to create within their community. At the end of the programme the cohort will be brought together for an in-person ‘Hackathon’, to work together towards the positive change they collectively seek to create.
