The teaching will cover the following thematic areas: • Power and the “Three Faces of Power” framework; • Community organising principles and practices; • Public narrative and storytelling, including the "Story of Self, Us and Now" framework; • Strategy for action; • Team dynamics and running effective meetings. The provider will be expected to: • Design and deliver the above content using participatory and engaging teaching methods; • Tailor content to align with the ethos and learning outcomes of the Climb programme; • Provide support and guidance to delegates as they apply their learning to real-world leadership challenges.

This specific knowledge base built off their research and their hands-on experience working in community uniquely positions them to provide this training.
