“This is the best leadership development experience I’ve encountered”
One of the great joys of working in the LMI International family, as opposed to working alone in the world of leadership development, coaching and consulting, is that we get to hear of the many lives that are transformed and organisations impacted beyond the limitations of our own experience.
One such example was shared with us in August this year when Mauricio Hoffmann from Swizterland completed the LMI Effective Personal Leadership programme. Mauricio is an experienced L&D professional and had this to say of his LMI experience:
❝Having spent many years leading Talent, Culture, and Leadership Development for International and global organizations, I can confidently say that this is the best leadership development experience I’ve encountered. No other comparable program I have attended or introduced compares to the profound and transformative impact this program has had on me.❞

“I felt like a fraud!”
Long-standing author and entrepreneur Martin Gladdish joined the LMI UK team this year and doing so has had a huge and unexpected impact on him. Amongst other works, in 2015 Martin co-authored ‘How to build your business in 90 minutes a day’ with the Nigel Botterill of the Enrepreneurs Circle, but shared recently,
“I have to be honest – even as a co-author of a best-selling book about committing time each day to work on my business, I felt like a fraud because I hadn’t consistently cracked the code myself. It wasn’t until I found LMI and a ‘process’ to manage myself that those minutes became part of my daily routine. And now I finally feel worthy of my bestselling author title.”
This is what LMI programmes do so well – they help people to take good ideas and important principles about how to manage themselves, their teams and their organisations, and establish long-lasting new habits that make a significant difference to their lives and their businesses. Read more about LMI’s Unique Process on the About section of our website.
New Programme Launch – Effective Coaching & Empowerment
For organisations looking to develop a culture of empowerment through relationship, of psychological safety rather than fear of failure…where leaders inspire creativity, foster innovation, and develop people’s potential, LMI’s brand new programme Effective Coaching & Empowerment develops managers and leaders to do just that. This programme meets a crucial need in the world right now for leaders who build relationships and release people’s potential rather than manage through hierarchy and control. It is also a fantastic opportunity for new sales and resales for LMI UK franchisees.
Foundations of Success Workshops
These 2-hour online introduction sessions to the ideas and practical tools that LMI have been using for 60+ years to help people become more purposeful, organised and effective continue to be the best way for LMI UK team members to develop positive, lasting client relationships. Our standing offer of 2 free places to every UK organisation makes the ‘selling’ part of establishing your franchise business simple, friendly and, above all, non-salesy!
