Leonards Ingredients
Leonards is a fast-growing and scaling spice blending business that has added significantly to their team, operational structure, systemisation, and financial performance in recent years.
The owners have started stepping back from being involved in all elements of the business and are now building a more independent structure and leadership team, so not all decisions and actions are dependent on them.
As part of this growth, they have recently promoted two team members into different managerial roles.
The SEM leadership courses were delivered to both of these team members, and to the Directors to increase their capability and confidence, and to build a shared understanding of what effective leadership looks like across the business.
The SME leadership development programme combined practical leadership frameworks with tools that could be applied immediately in the workplace, helping participants build confidence and develop consistent management behaviours.
The focus included:
The SME leadership development programme helped Leonards’ directors and newly promoted managers identify shared areas for improvement and apply practical leadership techniques to everyday staff interactions. This is supporting the business’s transition towards a more independent leadership team, with managers better equipped to take responsibility as the business continues to grow.
“We decided to engage in the training because the business was expanding, requiring an increase to its management and middle management structure. With internal recruitment taking place, we wanted to give both the team and ourselves the best possible tools to manage this change effectively.
The training experience was very interesting and raised a number of useful points, while also giving the management team the opportunity to honestly assess different areas of the business and identify shared weaknesses that we could target for improvement.
One of the key highlights was learning about the Adult, Child and Parent brain concept, which was particularly interesting and has already been actively used when managing staff interactions.
I would highly recommend this training to any business considering investing in their leadership team, as improving management skills can only benefit both the business and the staff they support.”
