An inspirational head of a charity who is also a stand-up comedienne has drawn on all her experiences 'the joy, the success, the frustration, the isolation and the lows and the highs' to design a masterclass for business leaders.
Maura Jackson, chief executive of Backup North West, will be hosting ‘The Invincible Leader’ workshops and mentoring to help leaders across all industries to help transform businesses and their teams.
The first Invincible Leader masterclass will be taking place on Friday June 14, with a location to be confirmed.
Maura said: “Have you ever been on training and all day thought I have a million things I could have and would rather have done than this? We all have. It’s positively soul destroying.
“That won’t happen when you come on my masterclass.
“What do you get when you cross an award-winning and experienced leader, a charity chief executive, a menopausal nanna and a comedian? Me.
“I have decided to take all the experiences, the joy, the success, the frustration, the isolation and the lows and the highs and design a workshop that gives real strategies and perspective to leaders across any industry.
“The Invincible Leader masterclass is a practical, no nonsense and relatable half day looking at transformational leadership.
“This isn’t about your job title, it’s about you, the amazing person you are. Resilient and ready for any challenge.
“I don’t do hard sell, I hate having it done to me. But people can benefit from my experiences, mistakes as well as successes. They will leave feeling confident, invigorated and ready.
“Unlock your invincible leadership potential with The Invincible Leader. Let's embark on this transformative journey together.”
Maura has ILM Level 7 in leadership and management, a diploma in leadership and management, Prince 2, Level 3 safeguarding for leaders, health and safety for leaders and CMI Level 7 in Coaching and Mentoring.
Combined with 24 years’ experience as a manager and 15 of those are as a CEO she’s ready to share her secrets.
