Leadership and management skills development

ILM has teamed up with Harvard Business School with more than 40 modules covering the full range of daily management responsibilities – from running a meeting and leading teams to strategy development and finance essentials.  And if you’re new to management or leadership, there are two modules to help you get up to speed quickly and start making an immediate impact.

Leadership and mental toughness

The first step to successful self-development is a clear knowledge of your current strengths and weaknesses. So take advantage of AQR’s unique online leadership assessment to check out your leadership styles, mapped to all the main leadership models.  Then find out whether you’ve got what it takes to perform at your peak regardless of what’s going on around you with AQR’s online mental toughness measure.

Evening events

ILM holds a full programme of evening seminars across the UK on a host of management and leadership topics – a great way to meet likeminded members while hearing from a diverse selection of expert speakers from the world of leadership and management.  A free place for every ILM member!

News and magazines

ILM’s award-winning magazine Edge is a great way to keep in touch with the latest thinking on leadership and management with plenty of lively debate and practical, no-nonsense advice.  Plus monthly e-bulletins on topical management news, supplemented by ILM News with updates on membership developments and case studies.

Legal helpline

If you ever have a legal issue and don’t know where to turn, you can call our free professional legal service for confidential advice on work-related or domestic issues.  Or visit the legal service website for the basics of law for business and consumers. 

CPD support

To help you record, plan and think about your personal and professional development, ILM has developed an invaluable CPD planner that’s straightforward and simple to use.

Professional recognition

Your ILM membership grade reflects the management qualifications and experience you have gained to date. Post nominal letters (eg MInstLM) ensure employers, contacts and colleagues instantly recognise your achievements in leadership and management.
