LIFT Ireland Leadership Training

LIFT Ireland is a social enterprise initiative aimed at increasing the level of positive leadership in Ireland. Leadership is not limited to a select few and everyone can be a leader in their own way. LIFT Ireland is a nonprofit that wants to help build a nation of positive leaders. We believe that the more people ‘living LIFT’, the better the future we create for our country.

Since LIFT’s creation in 2018, over 100 organisations and 35,000 people nationwide have adopted our efficient 5-step 8-week reflective roundtable process because it’s easy to implement, it works, and they get immediate impact for their people and organisations big or small.

Bringing LIFT into your organisation can help create a team of leaders who are positive, ethical and resilient. People who go through the LIFT process have increased integrity, respect, empathy and more. There are four options for bringing LIFT into your organisation:

1. Join a roundtable – Experience the roundtable process that reflects on different leadership values, what they mean to us and how we could improve each week
2. Train to become a facilitator – Over this training session, you will learn from the experts how to enhance leadership and positive change in your community Here you will learn to run a LIFT roundtable – a simple yet profound tool that gives each participant the space and time to reflect on LIFT leadership themes and how they impact their lives. You will then be given all the tools you need to bring this programme back to your organisation or community.

After you have completed the Facilitator training, there are two options for bringing LIFT to your organisation. Each option can be tailored to your needs and is designed based on the size and values of your organisation. Contact the LIFT team to discuss your needs and the options that will have the most impact for you – info@liftireland.ie. LIFT Ireland operate a RobinHood model for organisations so don’t hesitate to get in touch.

3. Run a pilot programme at your organisation – We will work with you and your organisation to run an 8-week pilot programme. LIFT will provide all the materials and resources required to do this successfully.
4. Full rollout of LIFT in your organisation – Rollout LIFT to all staff in your organisation. LIFT will provide all the materials and resources required to do this successfully. In addition, we can also write your own values into the LIFT process to bring them alive in a practical way.
