Queen Elizabeth II’s ‘positive values’ to be demonstrated in new leadership course
22/09/2023
Antrim and Newtownabbey Council has marked the first anniversary of the passing of Queen Elizabeth II by launching a leadership initiative for female residents in her memory.
The Women Into Leadership Programme was launched on September 8 in honour of Her Majesty’s legacy and achievement as an international leader.
A spokesperson for the local authority said: “Council will support 70 women as they each complete a leadership qualification and, in doing so, work to demonstrate the inspirational dedication to service and positive values Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II enshrined during her reign.
"The programme has been designed to help women develop confidence and leadership capabilities while achieving balance across multiple areas and roles within their lives.
“The programme will provide a range of qualifications, from OCN (Open College Network) to ILM (Institute of Leadership and Management), at a range of levels to help each participant unlock their leadership potential and learning journey in an individual way.”
Registration details will be announced on the council’s social media accounts and on the council website in the coming weeks. Alternatively, enquiries can be emailed to cpbs@antrimandnewtownabbey.gov.uk
