About the Programme
OVERVIEW
Self and Professional development is intrinsically connected. One is not possible without the other.
We believe that in order to develop and change any aspect of Self, the key ingredient is the commitment and desire to make a change.
However, in order to have a commitment, we need to know what we are committing to, and to make a change we need to know what we want to change. To know what we want to change, we need to develop a vision, which is clear and gives us a sense of direction and which then moves us to a new place.
For any of this to be possible, we need to understand ourselves, and we need to understand our starting point - where we are now - and our desired destination - where we want to go. Of course the journey will not be in a straight line. As we learn essential things about ourselves we may have to visit some small, undiscovered lanes and jump over some unexpected hurdles and maybe even climb a mountain or two. Additionally, it is significant to note that while we are progressing on our journey we also have to recognise that the destination may also change. Self-development and professional development is a dynamic and evolving process.
In order to enact any change, we need to be able to raise our own expectations of Self to a conscious level. We need to be clear about the changes that we wish to make in order for these changes to have any impact.
Therefore the vital aspect is to understand ourselves before we can develop our Self; it is in fact a dynamic process between understanding Self and developing Self.
As we engage in any Self-development, we become increasingly aware of the areas that we want to develop, and as we develop ourselves we become increasingly aware of who we are. Our Self- development is intrinsically connected and interwoven to our knowledge of Self. As we engage in Self-development, we are also getting to know who we actually are, how we work and what we want professionally from this world.
The Investors in Learning Self and Professional Development Programme is constructed as described below in order to support you on this dynamic, evolving journey.
Programme Content & Process
- Where are you now? Current state analysis
Here we will investigate your needs at this time through some structured questions to look at your overall drivers and needs, as well as following our Investors in Learning Insight Tool, which we also call our Driving Success Model. This includes some key factors that are used at the Individual, Team and Organisational level, and will help you to define and decide on what your priorities are at this time. - Where do you wish to be? Desired state visioning
Building your desired future. Here we will use visioning techniques in order to ensure that you are really honing your thinking and projecting your thoughts to a place where you would like to be. Here we often have to address our innermost fears and doubts and any issues we may have with Self-acceptance. - Creation of your Learning & Development programme
To meet the needs and what you are hoping to achieve. Here we create a unique programme for you in order to best meet your needs. - Understanding Self
Here we will use the psychological profiling tools which best meets your needs, to help you to understand yourself and give you a fresh understanding of yourself; a new mirror and a new vocabulary to understand who your are, your strengths, your traits, behavioural competencies, your preferences, behavioural tendencies, and your areas of development. You will receive online and fully colour printed documents to support your learning.Depending on your specific needs and desired outcomes, sometimes we may suggest to use more than one tool in order to help you gain the depth and breadth of learning as well as insight that you require. The exploration of the results of the profiling will support you to understand the challenges you are currently facing in relation to your vision. The tools will help you to review your understanding of your current situation as well as your desired future and vision. - Setting development goals
Using the insights that you have gained from the tools as well as the explorations and conversations and honed questioning and coaching, we will support you using some goal- setting techniques, to create some development goals to ensure you are clear about the areas of development you want to focus on in order to move towards your vision. - Developing your Self awareness and conscious learning strategies - Continued support in meeting your goals and moving towards your vision
We will continue to support you in the reviewing of your goals and the development of your vision. The more you understand your Self, whilst also learning to apply effective conscious learning strategies, the more likely you will be to develop the necessary useful and effective habits that will support you in achieving your vision and goals.It takes time to develop habits and to learn new behaviours which can then become unconscious behaviours. These Self awareness and conscious learning strategies will support your focus and approach to ensure that you give yourself the attention that you need to embed and apply your learning.
Want to know even more?
We advise that this programme should be a minimum of 6 months, as it takes time to develop new habits and behaviours. The regular sessions will help you to create Self-development as a habit and ensure that you carry this through into your daily life, and towards creating your desired future.
Therefore our recommended programme is delivered as a minimum 6-month programme on a one-to-one (usually online) basis to achieve the greatest and most in-depth learning experience.
In total this programme includes fourteen 2-hour sessions over a 6-month period following the process/content above. On average we will schedule 2 sessions per month, however in the first month there are 4 sessions to get you off to an in-depth start.

In addition to these sessions, you also have access to content, which is relevant to your programme and we provide you with specific development plans, which we review. You will always know exactly where you are in your development and will be provided with updated reviews to help you to remember your progress. Also, you will have the email address of your online coach who will answer questions at any time as well as arrange brief calls if you need a check in at any time.
We will always aim to support you and arrange dates and time lines that meet your sense of urgency and your needs.
