Leadership Executive Acceleration Program
ULP and Spencer Stuart are pleased to announce the launch of THRIVE, an executive coaching, mentorship and development programme. In this inaugural initiative 5 high potential leaders will be given an opportunity to develop their skills towards executive leadership roles. In this partnership we aim to unleash executive leadership potential.
Each year, a minimum of five executives will be selected to participate in a wide ranging programme that will see them undergo Spencer Stuart’s rigorous Advanced Leadership Profile assessment. This will lead to the creation of a tailored individual development plan to help them develop their skills and build their knowledge and confidence as leaders.Each executive will receive support from a Spencer Stuart consultant who will help guide their longer term career planning and development. ULP will also assign mentors from a network of “Captains of Industry” to journey with these executives.
