Founded in 2011, we are a not-for-profit SME, working collaboratively with employers and educators to create an inclusive ladder of lifelong leadership learning opportunities - connecting businesses and young people at multiple levels to learn, share best practice and build vital support networks from primary to board room and beyond. The Centre for Leadership Performance works to build leadership aspirations, potential and capabilities for the people of Cumbria because we believe better leadership means better lives for everyone. Over the past decade we have collaborated with educators, businesses, and young people to co-create, develop and deliver programmes that nurture aspirations, ignite ambitions and enhance leadership capability from Primary School to Board Room, providing opportunities for our leadership community to learn together and from one another. We believe that leadership isn't a job role or a position or a special person - leadership is for everyone.
We have over 400 volunteers who help support our programmes across 4 workstreams – Primary, Secondary, Early Careers and Workplace. We deliver in Schools and businesses across the whole of Cumbria.
