Sponsored content: course aims to make better third sector managers
As a third sector manager or leader, do you feel you are so tied up in the day job that you can’t find time to address management or strategic issues impacting your team and your organisation?
Do you wish for the time and headspace to explore some of these challenges with your third sector colleagues and peers?
The Challenges Group would like to offer you the opportunity to do just this. Our Chartered Management Institute-certified Managing with Purpose course. As a third sector organisation ourselves, The Challenges Group experiences many of the challenges that other third sector bodies face. Based on our relationship with the Chartered Management Institute and 15 years’ experience of delivering training globally, our Management and Leadership content is specifically tailored to the third sector in Scotland. We continuously improve the content based on our own experience and that of our peers – our training participants. We work in partnership with SCVO to provide training and have worked with over 250 SCVO members and our peers so far. Third sector managers and leaders are busy people, but they frequently tell us of the value of learning and problem-solving alongside their peers in the safe, supportive environment of our online and in-person training.
