The Action Centred Leadership model has stood the test of time and remains an excellent model around which management and leadership programmes can be developed. Our participants in this (Helix Consultancy) programme are from 5 different countries at both senior and junior level and they all have found the principles to be particularly enlightening. We are about half way through the programme and we are already seeing significant progress form the individuals involved. If either or both of the projects that are spanning the programme are introduced, the programmes will have more than paid from themselves and, more importantly, delivered a strategic initiative.
