In the private and public sectors, from SMEs to publicly-listed companies, I've delivered training across a wide range of organisation sizes and sectors.
Why Leadership and Management Training Matters
Great managers have an enormous impact on engagement, retention, motivation and performance.
Yet most people are promoted because they were good at their previous job - not because anyone trained them to lead others.
82% of managers are "accidental managers", stepping into the role with no formal training. (Source: CMI)
My leadership and management training courses help managers make that transition properly, giving them the tools, confidence and structure to lead people, manage performance and build teams that work.
Across these courses, managers learn how to:
-
Build confidence and credibility as a leader
-
Communicate clearly and inspire trust
-
Motivate and engage different personality types
-
Delegate effectively and set clear expectations
-
Handle difficult conversations without avoiding them
-
Manage performance fairly and consistently
Whether you're developing a new supervisor or building consistency across an experienced leadership team, these are learnable skills - and the difference shows quickly.

Drive Engagement and Accountability Through Effective Performance Management
Managing performance is the part of leadership most managers were never taught.
This course gives managers a clear, repeatable approach: setting expectations people understand, running reviews that produce action rather than paperwork, and handling underperformance early, fairly and without dread.
Managers will learn to:
-
Understand motivation using models like Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and Herzberg's Two-Factor Theory
-
Set objectives that leave no ambiguity about what's expected
-
Run effective appraisals and one-to-ones
-
Give constructive feedback that improves performance rather than souring relationships
-
Spot underperformance early and address it before it escalates while building confidence and competence
-
Handle performance conversations calmly and fairly
-
Keep clear, appropriate records
Perfect as part of a wider leadership development pathway or as a standalone course.
For in-house training I can build the session around your own appraisal system and review cycle.
In-house from £1,400 (in-person) or £1,150 (online)
Lead with Empathy, Awareness, and Authenticity
Emotional Intelligence (EI) is at the heart of modern leadership.
This course helps managers build self-awareness, understand others, communicate more effectively and create positive working relationships.
You’ll learn how to:
-
Understand the five key elements of EI
-
Strengthen empathy and active listening
-
Build resilience and emotional control under pressure
-
Create positive, collaborative working relationships
This course can be run as a standalone leadership development programme or combined with a one- or two-day leadership and management course for maximum impact.
Suitable for managers, aspiring leaders and anyone who works closely with others. Works well on its own, or combined with the one- or two-day leadership course for greater impact.
In-house from £1,400 (in-person) or £1,150 (online)
DISC is a practical framework for understanding how people prefer to communicate, make decisions and be managed.
Individual DISC reports can be added to any leadership course for deeper personal insight, or ordered on their own.
As a Certified Professional Behaviour Analyst, I use DISC throughout my leadership training to help managers recognise and adapt to different behavioural styles across their teams.
Examples reports are available so you can see the information covered in the DISC reports for your team.

Mark Baglow
Hi, I'm Mark. When you book this course, you get me – not an associate, not a script read off a slide.
I've spent fifteen years in the world of education, training and development. During my career I learned the thing that still shapes every course I run: people don't remember what you tell them, they remember what they do.
My training is practical, hands-on and refreshingly jargon-free – real tools you'll use on Monday morning, not dry theory you'll have forgotten by lunch.
I'm a certified DISC analyst, and I've designed and delivered leadership, management and communication training across sectors including education, software and financial services.
I'm based in Birmingham – right in the middle of the country – so I can reach you easily for in-person training anywhere in the UK, or even internationally! I also provide live online training if that suits you better.
I keep my business deliberately personal: you deal with me directly, from first enquiry to post-course follow-up, and every session is built around your people and your real-world challenges.
