Leadership Development at BAI

Coniferous forest by the water

About

The Dare to Lead programme develops key talent in the business to help people achieve sustainable personal and organisational results. In its first year alone fifty leaders, including the Global CEO, have completed the programme.

The programme enables and embeds the long-term leadership behaviour change required at BAI by:

  • inspiring its managers and leaders
  • developing their confidence to get the best from themselves and their teams
  • building a culture of empowerment, support, and challenge

Participants embark on a three-module 12–18 month journey to develop leadership effectiveness through dialogue, coaching, high performing teams and organisational change. The programme combines Impact’s Team Performance Inventory, personal feedback and full programme evaluation.

Evaluation data shows:

  • 92% of participants strongly recommend this programme
  • There is a 48% average increase in individual’s knowledge, skills and awareness of key objectives
  • 72% of participants use learning from the programme at least fortnightly

“The programme is a core component of our strategy to develop our leaders across the organisation and build on our culture for ongoing development. We are very pleased with the results we have seen with the programme to date.” -Caren Schadel, Chief HR Officer, BAI

The results are amazing, people stay longer and perform better. Experiential learning like this equips our people with a mindset that allows them to adapt to change. In my 40 years of leadership, I've never quite experienced anything as well put together and thought provoking.
