Lunch and Learn

Practical support for real people challenges. Six topics, one hour each, built to fit real working weeks.

For line managers

Six one-hour sessions, live online.

Line managers are under more pressure than ever. They're expected to manage performance, support wellbeing, navigate employment law and build inclusive teams, often without the time or tools they need to feel confident.

This six-part programme of one-hour sessions is designed to fit into real working weeks. Sessions run from February to November, delivered live online, and each one is £30 + VAT per person.

Seats included with every package

Studio Access includes 3 seats a year, from £149 a quarter, along with the full policy library and expert support.
