Expertise breeds excellence across the organisation

New perspectives produce fresh ideas

Tangible improvements produce positive results

Changing behaviours in an organisation is not easy. In a culture where people expect quick results with minimal effort, it is essential that development and learning is accessible, flexible, and individual, and is supported by the 5 stages of behaviour change.

Leadership and Management Case Studies

We have seen real business benefits from the leadership skills that our delegates have gained from Lifetime’s Level 5 programme. Our delegates on the programmes are more motivated and that feeds down to their teams, so the performance improves across the business

Paul Capper Vocational Learning Manager, Mitchells & Butlers

We see the benefits in the programme already as our delegates are applying their learning's straight away in their everyday role. This learning is at a higher level than we can provide internally and there is the huge benefit in the networking aspect, sharing best practice and understanding other candidates’ industries. Overall, this has been a great success so far.

Ed Smith L & D Manager (Europe), Claire’s Accessories

I've already benefited massively from what I have learnt and I'm sure I will continue to do so now I can take a step back from learning and focus on implementing. My biggest take away throughout has been to step back and look at things from the 'balcony'

Stuart Urquhart Contract Manager, Places Leisure

The whole process was very professional, well organised, excellent venues and very knowledgeable tutors and I am thoroughly enjoying it and getting a lot from it

Charlotte Grieveson General Manager, Mitchells & Butlers
