Overview
Thank you for your interest in the Leading Collaborative Organisations programme being delivered by the Leadership College for Government. This programme focuses on collaboration in public service through two residential workshops and one online event. Guest speakers, facilitated discussions and experiential activities will highlight the responsibilities and opportunities around collaboration for senior public service leaders.
The Leading Collaborative Organisations programme will be run with two cohorts. Reflecting the different nature of responsibilities and consequent group conversations, we are moving to a new style with two cohorts; one for CEOs and one for Deputy CEOs (or equivalent role titles), each carefully selected to ensure broad cross-public sector representation. You will be asked to select your equivalent level in this registration survey. Both programmes will be run concurrently in each venue with tailored content for each cohort. Cohorts will come together for networking opportunities throughout the programme.
This registration process will take around 10 minutes to complete.

The Leadership College for Government covers programme costs, including speakers, venue hire, and food. You will be asked to pay for your accommodation costs to secure your place on the programme. The costs are paid to the venue directly. Assuming you will arrive at the venue the day before the residential begins, the costs are approximately:
Residential 1: £150 per night for 3 nights TOTAL: £450
Residential 2: £105 per night for 2 nights TOTAL: £210
The overall total cost is approximately: £660
You are welcome to arrive on the morning of the first day of each residential and the costs will be reduced accordingly.
You are expected to claim back this cost and expenses (including travel) from your employer. If this cost represents a barrier to your attendance, please contact the Leadership College team as bursaries are available.

Cancellation Charges
Running this programme is a significant cost to the public purse. Please note that if you drop out 4 weeks or less before the start of the programme and you are not able to fill your place with another eligible individual then we may need to charge your organisation the full cost of this programme. We estimate this cost to be approximately £6130. You may also be charged a percentage of this figure if you drop out during the programme.
