 A containing and thoughtful leadership is crucial to the effective functioning of an organisation or work team. Marie’s work involves helping people and organisations develop a more self aware, ‘engaging’ and effective leadership where individuals are encouraged to examine how they take up their role and explore their personal and organisational authority. Her current work includes working with the Scottish Social Services Council on succession planning within organisations across Scotland. Last year, she was a member of the Stirling University team (led by Frances Patterson, Department of Applied Social Science), which had been commissioned by the Scottish Social Services Council to explore leadership development across Scotland’s social services and to identify gaps and development needs. The report on this work, Leading Together, is now available, with additional background reports on the SSSC website and can be accessed here.
