Leadership Training & Coaching: Find the Right Support for You and Your Team
Leadership coaching, bespoke team training and professional NLP qualifications, each designed to help you and your team thrive.
Leadership is hard. The right support makes it easier.
You didn’t step into leadership to spend your days putting out fires, yet that’s often how it feels. Your team is stretched, the same conflicts keep coming back, and difficult conversations get avoided or go badly. Change lands faster than anyone can explain it, and you’re expected to stay calm, confident and in control while quietly wondering if you’re getting it right.
Taproot TLC offers training and coaching that give you and your team practical, evidence-based tools to lead with purpose, communicate with presence and handle pressure without burning out. Everything is shaped by more than 20 years of senior NHS leadership, so it’s built for real working life, not the classroom.

Leadership Training
Most healthcare leaders are promoted for their clinical skills, then left to work out leadership on the job. Our leadership training closes that gap. Combining evidence-based NLP with the Taproot Leadership Framework, it helps you lead with clarity, stay calm under pressure, handle difficult conversations with confidence and bring out the best in your team. Whether you’re stepping into your first leadership role or looking to grow further, you’ll leave with practical tools you can use straight away and skills that last well beyond the training room.

The Taproot Leadership Programme
(6 sessions across 3 months)

Team Training
Healthcare teams are running on goodwill. Rotas are short, demand keeps rising, and the same tensions come up again and again. Difficult conversations get put off or go badly. Good people burn out or leave. Change arrives faster than anyone can explain it, and leaders are left holding it all together with little time to step back.
None of this is a reflection of how much your team cares. It’s what happens when people are under sustained pressure without the tools to handle it.
Our team training, whether a single masterclass or a programme built around your team, gives practical, evidence-based knowledge and skills that your team can draw on every day.
Team Training
Half-day masterclasses on the real challenges of healthcare leadership, from difficult conversations and burnout to change and team culture. Delivered in-house or online.

NLP Certificated Training
Take your skills further with a recognised NLP certification. Our certification pathway goes beyond introductory tools, giving you a deep, practical understanding of how language, thinking and behaviour shape the way people communicate, respond under pressure and change. You’ll learn to build rapport quickly, influence with integrity, help others shift unhelpful patterns and stay resourceful when the pressure is on. Practical, supportive and grounded in real-world situations, it’s ideal for leaders, coaches, professionals and anyone who wants to make a lasting difference in their work and life.

Motivational Maps
What actually drives you, or your team? Motivational Maps is a simple, insightful tool that reveals the motivators behind how people think, work and make decisions. A short online questionnaire identifies your top motivators from nine core types, such as the need for security, recognition, expertise or autonomy, and shows how strongly each one is currently being met. Through a personal debrief, you’ll explore what energises you, what drains you and what to change to feel more engaged. For teams, Maps uncover why people respond so differently to the same situation, helping leaders motivate more effectively, reduce friction and keep good people engaged.
Individual Motivational Maps
A short online questionnaire identifies your top motivators, and you’ll receive a detailed personal report showing what drives you and how well those needs are currently being met. In a one-to-one debrief, we’ll explore your results together, uncovering what energises you and what drains you. You’ll then receive a one-page action plan setting out clear, practical steps for positive change.
£250 per session
Team Motivational Maps
Every member of your team completes a short online questionnaire and receives their own individual report, showing what drives them and how well those needs are currently being met. Their results are then brought together into a team map, giving a clear picture of what motivates your team as a whole: where energy is high, where it’s being drained, and where differences in motivation may be causing friction. Together, we’ll explore what the results mean for how your team works, leaving you with practical steps to boost engagement, strengthen relationships and get the best from everyone.
Starting from £1,500 per team session
