Ready to advise on the principles of Good business?

Impact Leadership Programme

2.5 days of in-person training and workshop sessions alongside courageous leaders who are keen to convert their ESG concerns and uncertainty into meaningful, impactful action.

Building on the success of the Leadership for Good, UK for Good has developed the materials to deliver a courageous fully in-person programme which enables us to dig deeper and take take a more practical approach to some of the more complicated aspects of sustainable business.

The Impact Leadership Programme is an interactive and inclusive in-person programme for leaders, consultants, strategists, and in-business sustainability advocates looking to advise on and apply the principles of good business.

This programme is designed and delivered by two experienced Impact Consultants and B Leaders underpinned by the B Corp principles. Whether you aspire to support a business to become B Corp certified or not, you will leave the programme with an understanding of how business can lead the change we need to achieve a sustainable future, and the skills to support your clients or business to drive that change.

We champion inclusivity and empowerment to those who face systemic barriers to business so we offer an equity discount of 40% to women and marginalised groups.

Our Impact Leadership Programme has been co-created by two B Leaders for business leaders, consultants, strategists and in-business sustainability advocates to be able to advise on the principles of Good business

2.5 days in person with B Leaders Donna Okell and Louisa Burman
Access to our collection of template policies and resources to support your clients through their better business journey
A quarterly update for alumni to share your successes, challenges, ask questions, and network with your fellow cohort alumni whilst you are in the programme
I completed the Leadership for Good course because we are going through B Corp certification ourselves. I found the course extremely helpful, and it’s given me so much knowledge further to what I already had. I feel confident that I can guide Tenzing through B Corp and recertification, as well as give advice to other companies on the same journey. The small group size meant that we were really able to dig into every topic and cover any questions raised. I’d very much recommend to anyone going through B Corp certification, or interested in learning more about the programme.

Tenzing Private Equity

The Leadership for Good Programme provided an engaging and informative introduction, and in many aspects deep dive, into the world of B Corps – why we need them, what they are and the process a business goes through to become one. It was a really enjoyable course, the mix of online and in-person sessions worked well allowing for meaningful and insightful conversations. A great course for anyone in business thinking of becoming a B Corp and for sustainability consultants.
