FMLM College Office Bearers Leadership Development Programme 23-24
Who is the programme for?
This is designed for senior college office bearers and has attracted many future college presidents.
Programme objectives
• To support senior college and faculty office-bearers to develop their leadership skills to lead and transform their organisations in an increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) environment.
• To create a community of college and faculty leaders able to establish a supportive environment that will lead to stronger relationships and support collaboration between colleges.
• To enable dialogue with politicians and senior leaders in national bodies of strategic importance to colleges and faculties.
The FMLM approach includes:
• a process of focused support and high challenge with rich content delivered in a face-to-face format.
• research evidence, theory, pertinent leadership models and diagnostics.
• dealing with real issues in context and exposure to different perspectives.

“I can thoroughly recommend the College Officer Bearers’ Leadership Programme. The course content helps participants to develop in their roles as senior College leaders, with excellent facilitation by Dave Thornton. It also helps to create a supportive network across a range of medical disciplines.”
