Sound familiar?

You were brilliant at the job.
Then they made you the boss.

I'm winging it, and hoping nobody notices.

There's a conversation I've been putting off for weeks.

People who were my mates last month now report to me.

I lie awake replaying a chat or dreading the next one.

Here's the thing. None of this means you're bad at your job. You were promoted for being good at it, then left to work out the hardest part alone. That's exactly what these two days fix.

Leaders and employees walking together with confidence

Handling hard conversations calmly

A team that's motivated and delivering

Confident you belong with the qualification to prove it

Where these two days take you

What your two days actually look like

Two focused in-person days, a week apart. Here's the shape of them.

Day 1 · Understanding Leadership

09:30 - Your leadership style and when to flex it

11:00- Motivating real people (including the diﬃcult ones)

13:30 - Leading a team through change

15:30 - Putting it to work on your actual challenges

Day 2 · Performance Management

09:30 - The diﬃcult conversation, step by step

11:00 - Setting objectives that drive results

13:30 - Running a performance review that works

15:30 - Decisions under pressure; a system to use

Trained on day 1 & 2 → The Monday after you're using it for real → Months on, confident, credible, promotion-ready

What you'll actually cover

Two modules. The stuff that matters when you're leading real people.

Honest answers to what you're probably thinking

"Will it actually work, or is it just theory I'll forget by Friday?"

Every model is taught against a real situation you're facing right now so it sticks, because you'll use it in your very next 1:1. If training's never changed anything before, it's because it wasn't about your team.

Isn't this just a nice-to-have I could get oﬀ YouTube?"

A podcast doesn't go on your CV. As one hiring manager put it, they "tick oﬀ leadership and management the second they see ILM." You get recognised proof and two days practising the skills for real.

"Will I look out of my depth?"

Cohorts are capped at 15 and built on discussion, not lecturing. Whatever level you start from, you're in the right room. Learners' most common words: comfortable, no pressure.

Questions, answered

Will this help me progress and do employers actually respect ILM?

No course can promise a promotion, but it gives you the two things that make the case for you: A nationally recognised qualification on your CV (ILM is part of City & Guilds. Exactly what employers look for in first-line managers) and the visible confidence of someone ready for the next level.

Why ILM rather than CMI?

Both are respected and either strengthens your CV. ILM is especially well established for new and first-line managers and you get a recognised qualification in two days, rather than a months-long programme.

Do I need any qualifications to join?

No. If you manage people, or are about to, you're ready.

What's included in the £895?

Everything from training, materials, ILM registration and the qualification itself. Nothing else to pay.

Is it really just two days?

Yes. Plenty of leadership qualifications drag on for months of evening study and portfolios. Ours is an accredited ILM Level 3 course run as two focused in-person days, a week apart. Small groups too, capped at 15.

Can I book myself, or does my employer need to?

Either, plenty of people self-book. If you'd like your employer to fund it, we'll invoice them directly. The qualification is yours and fully portable.
