The LBU Leader

New for 2024!

The LBU Leader describes the behavioural indicators and qualities, identified through our research, as being associated with effective leadership at our university.

The LBU Leader webpage presents the framework and also details a range of associated development and support opportunities.

development across the University

POD have worked with the Centre for Learning and Teaching, The Digital Learning Team in Library Services, Information Technology Services, The Educational Enhancement Unit, Student Services and the Research and Enterprise Service to bring the development and training available across the university together. By bringing this development together in one place, on the Development and Training website, we hope to ensure that you can easily access the development you feel you need.
