Reporting to: Leadership Development Manager

T– Summary

Helping leaders evolve faster than the world around them.

We’re up to something incredibly exciting at T–. We’re on a mission to impact 1m leaders at pioneering businesses, whilst building a rule breaking culture and practise for our people - attracting, growing and rewarding exceptional talent. 

Forged in the fires of startups and some of the most successful companies in the world, we specialise in developing leaders in environments of high change, growth and disruption. We work with leaders at scale-ups and pioneering corporates, supporting them in building the great businesses of the future. With clients such as ASOS, Bacardi, BBC, Boots, Cancer Research UK, Disney, Domino’s Pizza, Google, LinkedIn, Loveholidays, The Guardian, Monzo, Not on the High Street, Ordnance Survey, Sainsburys, Secret Escapes and Unilever. We’re incredibly proud of the work we do. 

We believe in the power of collective brilliance and our signature offering, the Leadership Generator, has been co-created with our brilliant, diverse network of Change Makers. This global network of over 100 experts includes psychologists, neuroscientists and entrepreneurs and supports us in delivering impactful learning experiences. Through programmes, strategic offsites and coaching we’re able to support our clients unique learning needs. 

We are a research-led organisation. At the heart of our point of view is a deep understanding of why some leaders and organisations thrive in disruption whilst others fail. We spoke to more than 120 organisations of 50 to 120,000 in different industries across the globe to find out what’s really going on in the minds of leaders as they navigate a time of unprecedented change and disruption.

Those findings were combined with insights from interviews with over 150 CEOs in the last 2 years to create a playbook for leaders of the 4th industrial revolution, The Disruptive Leadership Report. The DLR also gave birth to our proprietary model of leadership development.

Why people love working at T–

Our culture is all about collaboration. With a weekly team lunch, annual offsites and regular socials, we take the time to celebrate both small and significant achievements together. We’re candid and cherish feedback, encouraging a learning culture in which we all grow with the business.
