#TeaTimeTalk: BAPO Leadership Programme (Inspiring our Future Leaders)

July 11th 6pm – ZOOM

During this Tea Time Talk we will be sharing information regarding the new BAPO Leadership Programme 2022.
BAPO have been successful in obtaining an educational grant from Health Educational England (HEE). The intention of this funding is to implement a professional development programme to support the next generation of leaders in P&O.
To be truly effective, leaders need to build a toolkit of knowledge, skills and behaviours that will set them, their teams and their organisations up for success.
It is BAPO’s aim to develop a programme which fulfils the delegates’ leadership expectations from both an operational and strategic perspective
