Description

Invitation To Tender (C1222a): London Leadership Programme - Development, Management and Facilitation

The London Leadership Programme (LLP) has been running since the autumn of 2017. To date, 150 senior officers across London have participated, with a further 32 scheduled to graduate in March 2023. Feedback from all those that have participated, and their sponsors continues to be very positive. We now wish to extend the programme for four further cohorts in the period up to 2025 (two cohort in 2023/24 and another two cohorts in 2024/25).

The LLP was established to invest in people who have the ability to perform as collaborative systems leaders in London and to support London's future leaders to best understand and capitalise on the complex social and organisational systems that will enable the required transformation of public services in the capital.

We are inviting the submission of written quotations for the development and delivery of four cohorts of the LLP on behalf of the London Self Improvement Board. The London Self Improvement Board is chaired by the Chief Executive London Borough of Camden, and comprises six other London Borough chief executives and Chief Executive of London Councils. The LLP is led by the Chief Executive London Committee Workforce Development Lead, Chief Executive of the London Borough Bexley.

The finances associated with the LLP are administered through London Councils both in terms of fee income and expenditure. The contract for this commission will be with London Councils on behalf of the Self Improvement Board.

Bidders should see the rest of this notice and the ITT and other Tender documents for full details on how to apply.

Please send submissions to Tenders@londoncouncils.gov.uk quoting reference C1222a to arrive by 12 noon, Friday 20 January 2023.
