Regenerative Leadership Programme
Value Improvement Projects works with clients and partner organisations to support the development of regenerative leadership to enable change at an individual, team, organisational and societal level.
The client programme here demonstrates how we collaborate with partners to understand their business and organisational needs and from this how we develop a programme design that enables leaders to:
- Lead in service of your ‘why?’ – to feel the nourishment of self-actualisation.
- Transform and regenerate glocally – starting with self and on to teams and societal impact.
- Learn collaboratively with and from others in diverse and inclusive teams.
Our Survey of the Landscape
Interviews and focus group conversations with leaders across the organisational landscape reveals:

- Pride in the organisation but low psychological safety
- Time poor, work-based stress and wellbeing challenges
YOUR VISION...

ESTABLISHING ROOTS WORKING FROM SELF
|
Imagine a seed planted in rich, fertile soil, ready to grow. Our “Taking Root” phase is like that first crucial stage of growth—it all begins from the inside out. We start by nurturing self-discovery, helping you uncover your true purpose, your “why,” and planting it at the heart of your personal vision. From there, it can begin to take root and grow. In this phase, we create a space that feels as safe as a protected garden, where you can explore freely and connect deeply, feeling supported in every step. Through community-based learning experiences, you’ll bond with others on similar paths. Together, you’ll exchange insights, challenges, and growth—like sunlight and water—helping each other thrive. And with guidance from experienced mentors, thought-provoking keynotes, and digital resources, you’ll have everything you need to keep your “why” nourished and strong. Through your Peers Action Learning Set (PALS), you’ll receive ongoing peer support, an essential network of learners whose experiences enrich your own journey. Here, your unique leadership vision will grow, branch out, and, ultimately, blossom with authenticity and impact. The journey begins with setting roots in a foundation of purpose, one that will sustain your growth and allow your leadership to flourish naturally, fully, and with a deep connection to yourself and the world around you.
