The Foundation in Leading with Motivational Intelligence (MQ) is a CPD-accredited programme designed to provide entry-level managers and new leaders with a deeper, more structured grounding in effective leadership. Delivered over five interactive sessions (21 hours total), the course builds on core MQ principles with extended learning, practical application, and supported development through guided homework and project work. Participants progress through a comprehensive journey, starting with developing self-awareness and understanding how thinking influences behaviour, performance, and leadership impact. The programme then expands into applying Motivational Intelligence to real workplace scenarios, strengthening communication, decision-making, and the ability to manage and motivate others effectively. A strong emphasis is placed on practical learning, with participants engaging in exercises, group discussions, and real-world application between sessions. Pre- and post-MQ assessments provide measurable insight into development, while additional homework and project work reinforce learning and ensure sustained behavioural change. By the end of the programme, participants will have built a solid foundation in leadership, equipped with the confidence, communication skills, and practical tools needed to manage performance, support their teams, and lead with greater clarity and purpose.
