The Resilient Mentor/CPD Lead

A 3-month bespoke coaching package that equips mentors and CPD leaders to assess, develop, and measure the impact of their leadership.

What To Expect

Prioritising time and space to critically reflect on the difference you make, is a key ingredient to your wellbeing and job satisfaction. By validating explanations of your practice, you will increase your sense of balance and agency and bring greater meaning and purpose to your role as a CPD lead or a mentor.

  • Getting close to your daily work

    The 1-1 coaching package begins by guiding you to set your goal, establish your context, and identify the values that underpin your role as a CPD leader or a mentor. Throughout the coaching journey, we continue to address emerging needs and interests. In addition to leveraging the RLDP's three 'Engines,' we may also refer to the programme's correlator to inform your next steps.

  • Charting your educational influence

    During the coaching sessions, we provide a safe and supportive space for you to notice, reflect and articulate your thinking. We encourage curiosity about how your values manifest in your practice, an exploration of your educational influence, and an examination of the rationale behind your decisions, all aimed at illuminating valuable insights.

  • Your impact report

    At the end of the programme, you'll have the opportunity to reassess your strengths. Sean will use comparative data to create an impact report. The collaborative document provides both quantitative and qualitative evidence of your growth in leadership capacity over the 3 month period.

Options for how many coaching sessions you want within the 3-month package

  • Alignment with CPD Mechanisms

    As educators, we can have further confidence in the breadth and depth of this programme. It meets the requirements of each of the 14 mechanisms identified by Sims et al. (2021) as being integral to effective Professional Development (PD).

    See the FAQs for more details on the RLDP and its alignment with PD mechanisms.

  • Between 2014 and 2023 over 15000 assessments (RLA and Feedback) have been made to help develop resilient leadership capability.

    We routinely analyse the results of these assessments as part of our research to establish and maintain:

    • Validity -
    the statements accurately reflect what is required to be a Resilient Leader

    • Integrity -
    facets and statements are correlated only where we expect and each statement is
    sufficiently differentiated from others

    • Sensitivity -
    responses to the frequency scale are well distributed for each statement.
