This service is for anyone interested in setting up an Action Learning Set within an organisation, as part of a cross partner initiative, or within the public, private or voluntary sector.

Action learning provides a clear forum for managers, leaders and those involved in coaching to discuss all issues and problems relating to management and leadership on a regular basis.

We will help you to put together a framework for in-house Action Learning Sets. This will include briefings and introductory workshops on Action Learning for staff and other interested parties and a trained and experienced Action Learning facilitator for in-house sets.
