Programme structure
The core scholarship programme for all leadership scholar levels includes:
-
Individual assessment of leadership strengths and areas for development. This will be undertaken very shortly after a scholarship has been awarded. This will be followed by 2-hour personal feedback session.
-
An experienced mentor is allocated to each scholar for the duration of the scholarship. Our mentors are from central government, the corporate sector, NHS and other care organisations. The mentor will work with the scholar in advising the selection of development programmes.
-
Welcome day – a briefing day for all FNF leadership, travel and research scholars. We will; 1) Establish individual cohort learning communities, 2) Define the core elements and expectations of the scholarship, 3) Introduce personal leadership opportunities
-
3-day residential with unique cohort of peer scholars designed to: 1) Facilitate scholars to build a learning community and a robust network of peer support throughout their scholarship and beyond, 2) Facilitate discussions on current leadership challenges and opportunities and other contemporary topics, 3) Introduce scholars to co-consulting, a simple process for giving and receiving help, 4) Introduce scholars to digital leadership concepts
