Happy Friday,
I've reflected closely this week on how my core values underpin everything I do. This week I delivered the final module of the Leadership and Development Programme at Chesterton House Financial Planning Ltd. It’s been an absolute joy to design, deliver and facilitate this programme to the second cohort (The Class of 22) over the last 2.5 years.
The key objectives of the programme were as follows:
'To provide a foundation for all managers, equipped with consistent knowledge, tools and skills to lead and manage successfully'.
'To embed the unified and consistent delivery of leadership, management and development support for individuals and teams across all areas of the business'. (Financial Planning, Legal and Accountancy)'.
'To build leaders for the business with the ability to inspire, engage and develop teams and individuals to achieve the ultimate goal of helping all clients to achieve financial freedom'.
The programme has covered the following 12 modules with individual coaching sessions between each of the modules.
Our Vision and Values as Leaders and Managers
Developing our Culture as Leaders and Managers
An introduction to Myers Briggs
Management and Leadership Skills - Part I
The Power of MBTI as Leaders and Managers

Our Personal, Team and Business Effectiveness and Programme Review
During this time I’ve seen the group grow their skills, knowledge and confidence immeasurably. I have seen them develop the most wonderful culture of deep trust, vulnerability and shared purpose. I have seen them live and breathe their team charter that they built together at the start 1000%!
Working with Chesterton House over the last 4 years has been my absolute privilege and joy. They take their professional and personal development seriously, they invest in it and commit to it to the point where they now have a highly successful CPD in-house programme and a brilliant Managers Hub to support everyone in their business. This is a testament to their hard work and commitment to keep learning and developing.
I cannot thank everyone I want to personally here but I want to mention the following Dawn Hubbard – you are an absolute dream to work with. Richard Urwin and Andy Jervis for trusting me. Julie Moretta and Jenny Jervis ACIM Ba(Hons) and to all the Leaders and Managers who were part of the first programme.
Jordan Wong, Michael Toms Suzanne R. Amarjeet Singh Anna Sidat and Hannah West – thank you!
My core values are integrity, empathy, honesty and responsibility – thank you for letting me live and breathe these with you over the last 4 years.
I look forward to seeing how you continue to grow and thrive as a business!
Have a great weekend ahead!
