SUCCESS STORIES
“It’s great to see initiatives such as the 20Twenty Leadership Programme provide real business benefit and impact”.
“The 20Twenty programme has been a game-changer for me as a leader. It gave me the time and space to reflect on my leadership style, understand my impact, and make strategic changes with confidence.
The blend of academic insight and practical application was just right, and achieving Chartered Manager status is a proud moment that recognises both my learning and the growth of my organisation. I’ve already recommended it to members of my team.”
“The 20Twenty course at Cardiff Met was a transformative experience. It changed how I think about leadership and gave me practical insights into creating high-performance environments.
Through my strategic project, I applied lean management principles to improve processes in my workplace, bringing immediate value to the business. Completing the course also led to Chartered Manager status, which I see as a strong foundation for continued growth.”
“Reflecting on the journey, studying the 20Twenty at Cardiff Met has been one of the most rewarding decisions I’ve made. It has strengthened my professional capabilities, broadened my perspective, and continues to benefit both the business and me personally.”
“Since starting the 20Twenty Programme, I have enjoyed every minute of it. I feel I have benefited from them all – both personally and professionally.
I have already introduced some of the techniques that we’ve practiced in the workshops into my department, and have found that the coaching sessions are a great tool for self-reflection on your current management/leadership style.”
“A brilliant course to bring any business into the 21st century (and beyond). It featured a great mixture of industry experts, guest lecturers, peer-reviewed research, critical thinking, and networking.
“We didn’t really know what to expect from the Help to Grow Management course, but it didn’t disappoint. The biggest takeaway for us was to clearly define our sense of purpose as a business, something that was always there but that simply needed to be spelled out.”
“The 20Twenty programme has been an exciting, challenging and personally very valuable. Having the space and opportunity to learn from experts and peers from a range of organisations and to challenge convention on questions around leadership has been vital to me in growing my own leadership skills.
These skills have been important in developing my own role and impact and the ability to develop my network through the programme has been invaluable.”
