NHS Executive Leaders’ Wellbeing Programme
If there was ever a time to prioritise your wellbeing as an Executive Leader in the NHS, it is now. As we navigate our way through the combination of increasing demands, complex service and imminent winter pressures, the continuing unpredictability of the pandemic and the impact of workforce and economic challenges, it is easy to lose sight of ourselves. Yet all the evidence shows that leaders’ wellbeing influences workforce wellbeing, which directly impacts patient care, experience and outcomes. Leaders are people too, and we need to support their wellbeing so that they are better able to care for the teams they lead.
We also now recognize that supporting staff wellbeing is operationally and strategically critical, with

Senior leaders play a critical role in shaping the culture and success of their organisations. Prioritising your health and wellbeing not only benefits you personally but also has far-reaching positive effects on your teams and the entire organisation. It is an investment in leadership effectiveness, employee engagement, and in the long-term sustainability of your organisation.

This programme is part of our Leaders' Health & Wellbeing Programmes. Did you know that we also run the NHS Leaders’ Wellbeing Local Facilitators’ Development Programme?
Is it for me?
Yes, if you are a senior leader managing multiple and often competing pressures and expectations, looking to enhance your own wellbeing and better support a culture of wellbeing in your organisation. We are specifically asking that up to two members of the Executive Team from organisations who are sponsoring facilitators of the Local NHS Leaders’ Wellbeing Programme take up a place on this programme.
What does the programme involve?
The programme is designed to make participation as easy as possible through online learning and involves:
Two workshops of three-hours’ each, spread over two months
One individual coaching session of 90 minutes, arranged to suit stretched diaries
A light and engaging amount of pre and post module online learning
Is there a cost?
This is a fully-funded NHS development programme supported by NHS England.
Please note: Funding for these programmes is currently closed but please get in touch if you would like to discuss this work further, or if you are interested in commissioning an Executive programme.
