Manley challenges all existing models of leadership development with proven results. Rather than forcing compliance, the focus is on gaining commitment by raising levels of self and team awareness, then aligning personal and organisational values & purpose, leading to more effective business and personal relationships – collective brilliance.

In 2018, The Compassionate Leadership Academy online course was launched, ensuring that leadership and personal development was truly accessible by all. The online academy allows us to deliver affordable, effective training on a large scale, aligning your teams and promoting positive relationships.

EMEA Software Company
A two day programme with the senior leadership team, working on the principles of Compassionate Leadership – to create a leadership culture and establish cohesion for a geographically dispersed leadership group. MT continued working with the company to embed the behavioural framework into the wider organisational structure.
GUIDING MESSAGE
The Guiding Message delivers organisation wide clarity, alignment and commitment to the strategic vision. It aligns head, hand and heart and is a vital part of delivering sustainable high performance. It is the definition of organisational culture and the source of strong commitment and organisational resilience.
It becomes the decision making, empowerment & engagement tool. It is the go to reference for leadership and establishes the base line criteria on which organisations can be measured.
Through a series of interviews, workshops and events, MTI will steer and guide this vital piece of work to create your Guiding Message, bringing together:
- Purpose
- Vision
- Mission
- Strategic Focus
- Value

MT worked with the Board of Directors and then all management levels to align and commit to a purpose and core values. MT continued to advise and mentor members of the senior leadership team. Within twelve months, the leadership teams managed to rescue what looked to be a terminal decline.

CASE STUDY
UK Data Centre
MT have been involved for the last seven years, during which the workforce has quadrupled and the company was accredited with Investors in People Platinum Award – the highest accolade possible focussed on employee engagement, welfare and development. The company have a clear and powerful Guiding Message and a strong cohesive management structure. MT are also working within the supply chain to further promote successful relationships and team development.
The alignment of culture to strategic intent is the key to its delivery. The creation of culture requires all employees to behave in an aligned manner; that is the definition of culture. For people to commit to behave in a certain way, consistently and with psychological safety, there must be an alignment with the cultural norms and their own unique value sets; this is the source of commitment.
This commitment at an individual level is vital, as with commitment comes engagement, collaboration, innovation, ownership, resilience, well-being, happiness and performance. We have designed a simple yet powerful e learning course for all employees within the organisation to engage and embed the organisations values and behaviours creating a coherent positive culture.
Case Study

Compassionate Leadership gives you the tools to enable each individual to bring the very best of themselves to the workplace. It’s an approach ideally suited to master the leadership challenges of today and in the future
We engaged Manley to help steer us through a major change programme and the results he has delivered are exceptional. Not only does Manley have firsthand experience of major leadership challenges he has the ability to craft those experiences in a way that the team can practically engage with and use in a positive way. I would not hesitate in recommending Manley to any organisation that faces similar challenges
It was great to meet you during the training in the US and have to say it was definitely the best training sessions I have ever attended. Your energy and passion come through clearly and I hope that we can carry that on to our teams. Hopefully, we will see you sometime next year for the “next steps” so we keep the momentum going. Cheers
Manley has been working with me for well over a decade applying and honing his Compassionate Leadership principles and in every instance he has had a positive, meaningful and sustained impact for the business and it’s people
