Welcome!

We are delighted to offer you an extended series of leadership development opportunities if you are currently working in the cultural and creative industries. Following the huge demand for the previous series, we are now delivering a further 22 "Leadership Development Day" and "LDDplus" workshops across the UK starting in May 2008 and running through until March 2011.

This programme of Leadership Development Days is primarily intended to support and enhance the leadership potential of black, Asian and ethnic minority people, disabled people and people working in micro-businesses (1-5 employees) in the cultural and creative industries.

We have two levels of workshop for you to consider: the Leadership Development Day is a challenging and creative introduction to the concept of leadership whilst the LDDplus workshop is intended as a next step on. We have designed it for those who have previously attended a Leadership Development Day or those who have been in middle or senior management or leadership roles for a little while. You can quickly see our recruitment criteria by clicking here.

This website gives you more information about what we can offer you and guide you through the on-line application process.

The Leadership Development Days  and LDDplus workshops form a strand of the broader Cultural Leadership Programme which is targeted at emerging leaders, people mid-way in their careers and cultural entrepreneurs throughout the UK. It is part of the CLP's initiative to promote excellence in management and leadership within the cultural sector. Since June 2006, the three sector lead organisations, Arts Council England, Creative & Cultural Skills and the Museums, Libraries & Archives Council have been charged with taking this work forward through the Cultural Leadership Programme - a unique cross-sector collaboration.
