    Brief

    The Local Government Association (LGA) is seeking a supplier to update and deliver an in-person Leadership Essentials programme focused on Local Government Reorganisation (LGR). The programme will run twice in November 2026 and January 2027, with a maximum of 24 delegates per session. It is aimed at councillors in authorities undergoing reorganisation, including Shadow Councillors, Joint Committee members, Leaders, Deputy Leaders, Portfolio Holders, and Committee Chairs. The programme should help councillors understand the evolving LGR landscape and develop leadership skills to navigate complex change programmes. Content should be refreshed from the successful 2025/26 programme (which achieved 100% positive feedback) to reflect recent developments and decisions on new unitary authority geographies. Delivery will include classroom learning, small-group work, and action learning/coaching. The successful supplier should equip councillors with the confidence, capability, knowledge, and awareness needed to lead the LGR agenda locally while supporting effective governance, stakeholder engagement, and organisational change. An LGA Member peer may support delivery.
