Build a Better Leader
Are you a Director or Senior Manager navigating the dynamic landscape of UK Construction?
Our Construction Specific Leadership and Management Programme is designed to strengthen and develop Construction leaders and senior managers in the key areas required by our Industry to succeed in today’s climate.
We know it can be lonely at the top, and our workshops encourage peer to peer learning where challenges and experiences can be shared amongst like-minded people whilst working towards the highest level qualifications available.
The Build a Better Leader (BBL) programme has been designed by Esteem Training based on our experience of working in the construction sector with Leaders and Managers for over 35 years. Our aim is to bring user friendly learning to Senior Construction practitioners that is firmly rooted in academic rigour.
In this video, our Founder and programme developer Trudy MacKenzie, and Facilitator David Currie discuss why we developed Build a Better Leader, the benefits of the programme, some examples of recent innovation projects, as well as their experiences of delivering it.
In Scotland? This course is funded under the Skills Development Scotland Modern Apprenticeship Scheme.
Not in Scotland? We can still deliver this and help you to access funding, get in touch with us to discuss.

“It is quite a lonely place as a Director, the lads don’t care, the kids don’t care, the wife doesn’t care, the dog doesn’t care, it is just good to be with people that are in the same boat – people who get it!”
