Training overview

IMPACT for Managers is designed to run in parallel with, and enhance, our IMPACT development programme. This programme aims to build line managers' skills, knowledge, and confidence in supporting and leading minority ethnic staff in their teams.

The aim is to build contemporary managerial knowledge and a toolkit of techniques for embedding race-inclusion into everyday management practices. As part of this journey, you will become alert to race-based assumptions about career progression at Imperial, and about how talent is measured and valued.

The sessions for the two programmes are separate, so if you participate in IMPACT for Managers and you manage a staff member who is attending IMPACT, you will not attend any workshops with them.

Who is this course for?

This course is open to all staff members who have line management or supervisory responsibilities. The course is especially recommended for those managing a staff member who is attending the IMPACT development programme, but it is not limited to those managers.

Key information

  • The programme consists of four online workshops spread over several months.
  • All workshops must be attended to complete the programme successfully.
  • Facilitated by an external trainer: Angela Goldberg Associates
  • There is no charge for Imperial staff. We do not accept external delegates on IMPACT for Managers.
