Reflections on MSc Leadership; A Week of Masterful Leadership.

Why has this course struck such a resonance within me, why am I so excited about learning again? Is it because of its utter relevance to my everyday working life, its experiential teaching styles or the charisma and passion with which the subject matter is delivered?


Probably all of the above, but I think it also runs deeper. The fundamental values and core principles that first attracted me to the medical profession, that are so ingrained and have been subconsciously honed over the years, are what this course embodies.

Teamwork, problem solving, mental and physical challenge, self awareness and communication skills are all components of leadership that are so fundamental to our profession. This week and the preceding weekends of theory have addressed all of these facets, and more, that we all rely upon in our working arena, providing a formal framework of concepts and models within which to understand and begin to master them.

The opportunities given to cement the theoretical learning within exhilarating practical experiences means that this was a most rewarding and productive week.

Individuals were challenged and encouraged to deconstruct themselves before being given the tools and awareness to discover and develop self leadership skills that may have been latent or absent previously.

The diversity and intensity of physical and mental challenges that were met and conquered by everyone within the group meant that through the week’s journey steep slopes were climbed and many summits reached!

Anyone can read a text book on leadership or attend a seminar but to have the opportunity to experience the theory in such high calibre company and within such a breath taking environment has been a privilege.

Thank you everyone at the Carnegie Alpenrose for a truly memorable week.

Weather the economic storm with effective and transferable leadership training.
Bespoke outdoor leadership and management development programmes are a powerful and effective way to develop teams and managers, providing them with the necessary skills to cope with difficult times.


With the toughest recession for a generation upon us and more and more pressure being put on managers to run their teams more efficiently and effectively; strong leadership and solid teamwork are essential to a company’s survival.














Providing leadership and management training will enable your managers to respond to and withstand the changeable and competitive climate they are working in. The right development programme will make them more effective, help them deal with stress and enable them to increase productivity, allowing the company to reap the benefits in both the short and long term.
One of the most effective methods for ensuring that skills learnt on Management Development courses are transferable back into the workplace is to allow people to practise these skills first hand. The results are more powerful, longer lasting and deeper rooted than those learnt in a classroom. The Outdoors is a unique leaning environment providing more impact and credibility than the classroom with participants experiencing and reacting to the real thing.
