New FMLM Executive Coaching Programme

FMLM is delighted to launch a new development opportunity for clinical leaders: the FMLM Professional Certificate in Executive Coaching (PCEC), delivered in partnership with Henley Business School.

Combining FMLM’s expertise in medical and healthcare leadership with Henley’s internationally recognised coaching education, the programme offers a professional coaching qualification tailored to the healthcare leadership context.

The programme has been designed for clinicians and healthcare leaders who want to develop professional coaching skills that they can apply within their teams, organisations and across wider health systems.

A coaching programme designed for healthcare leaders

The FMLM Professional Certificate in Executive Coaching draws on Henley’s established coaching expertise while reflecting the realities, challenges and opportunities of leadership in healthcare.

Whether participants are leading teams, supporting colleagues through change, developing future leaders or looking to build their own coaching practice, the programme will help them develop the skills, confidence and credibility to use coaching effectively.

Participants will learn through a practical and experiential approach, including opportunities to coach and be coached while developing a range of coaching tools, techniques and approaches.

The programme leads to a Level 7, triple-accredited coaching qualification.
