Building consistent manager capability across a global organisation

Achilles partnered with Willow & Puddifoot to build greater consistency in how managers lead and support their teams. We delivered Ignite to 30 managers through an in-person cohort in India and a virtual cohort across the UK and the USA.

Results included more consistent approaches to leadership, increased use of delegation, coaching and accountability, and greater confidence in handling feedback and performance conversations.

How we look at impact

Different programmes need different kinds of evidence. Depending on the work, we may look at:

how participants are applying the learning

changes in confidence or capability

skill development over time

feedback from managers, sponsors or other stakeholders

changes in everyday leadership behaviour

relevant organisational measures where a meaningful connection can be made

We use the evidence to understand progress and improve the work.
