Everyone Should Consider This
"STAR® is a programme that everyone should consider using. However well you think you know yourself and however good your management style is this programme helps you to find areas for improvement. It will help not just you but the people around you to become better empowered"
Helen Freeman, College of Medicine and Health, University of Exeter
Improved Relationships
"STAR® has been a very positive experience on me, I now ask questions a lot more instead of telling. This has led to an overall positive impact on the team as they are now more involved, contribute more at meetings and bring options to the table when there is an issue."
Centre Manager, LSE
More Effective Manager
"I feel I am a more effective manager as I've seen a turn-around to delivery from staff and the quality of the outcomes in our research portfolio. My staff feel I have become more approachable too."
Alfred Amambua Ngwa, Associate Professor, London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine
Best Thing That's Happened To Me
"I have transitioned from a being a technical expert to manager and this training has been the best that happened to me in my new role. It has not only given me the tools to do my job well, but is an impactful way to support employee development by giving them all the tools and resources they need to do their job well to achieve team objectives."
Ousman Secka, Head of Laboratory Management (Gambia)

Head of Programme Delivery, LSE
Positive Influence on my Team
"The STAR® Coach Programme made me really think about my priorities in my role, what type of a manager do I want to be, how can I be a positive influence on the team? The programme explores all of this and more and I feel I have made lots of progress and now incorporate coaching into my daily work significantly more than I used to."
Charlotte Bailey, University of Exeter
Developing My Management Style
"I've always felt that I had a good leadership style of management, but I've learnt that really I was just offering my suggestions and ideas rather than encouraging others to establish their own solutions. It's been a great start to developing my management style and I feel much more comfortable in helping to enable others to make solution focused decisions on a daily basis."
Laura Drinkwater, University of Exeter
