Are you an Accidental Leader?
Published 01.02.10
Now in its second year, the Accidental Leader programme aims to develop executives at director or CEO level within small and medium enterprises in the creative and digital industries in the region.
This includes people who have started a TV, radio, games, publishing, creative, public relations or digital content business, which is at least 12 months old.
The programme will help you:
• Develop leadership skills • Create efficient teams • Go from being digital to top digital • Network and collaborate with your peers • Grow your business
“From someone who grew their business from absolutely nothing, I can tell you that the best thing you can do right now, is get out of your business. Instead of going for a walk in the park, you might as well get out of your business and come to something like this, where you’re actively encouraged to think about your business and generate insight.” Matt Howarth, Virtual Construction
Funded by Northwest Vision and Media in partnership with Skillset, and supported by the Northwest Regional Development Agency, the programme is delivered by the world's leading digital media and leadership educator, Hyper Island.
The course retails at £5,000 (plus VAT) however, those accepted onto the programme will only pay a nominal fee of £1,000 (plus VAT) thanks to funding by Northwest Vision and Media
