Systems Leadership

Our Systems Leadership Programme helps people across Blackpool see the bigger picture — how our systems connect, and how we can work together to make change happen. Over two interactive days, you’ll explore what systems leadership means in practice: sharing perspectives, understanding conditions for change, and discovering your own strengths to lead within your community or organisation.

Whether you’re a teacher, health professional, community leader, or local changemaker, this is your opportunity to collaborate, connect and influence real, lasting change across Blackpool.

Understanding the System — and Your Role Within It

The Systems Leadership Course is a two-day interactive experience that helps leaders, practitioners, and community members understand how to influence change across complex systems.

You’ll dive into how systems thinking, local insight, and community connections can drive real change. Together, we’ll explore what makes collaboration work — discovering how shared purpose, strong networks, and strengths-based leadership can create lasting impact across Blackpool.

What You’ll Experience:

  • Discover what a system really is — and map what it looks like from your own perspective in Blackpool.

  • Learn from real examples of how places across the world have worked together to shift their systems.

  • Hear about the conditions for change and how to influence them.

  • Connect with others across Blackpool who care about movement, wellbeing, and doing things differently.

  • Reflect on your personal leadership strengths and how to use them to inspire change.

Why It Matters:

Every person who understands systems thinking helps create a ripple effect — influencing how decisions are made, how services connect, and how communities thrive. When leaders across Blackpool share a common language and purpose, real change becomes possible.

Upcoming Courses

Keep the Conversation Going — Learn, Reflect and Grow Together

The Community of Learning is an open and supportive space where we come together quarterly, in locations across the town, to share our experiences and insights on systems change and systems thinking. It focuses on continuous skills development and professional growth within the systems space, learning from one another and building confidence in how we apply these ideas in our everyday work. Together, we explore, reflect, and support each other in putting learning into action, making a real difference in our roles and in the communities we serve.

What Happens in the Community:

  • Quarterly meetups and themed sessions.

  • Practical activities — from movement-based icebreakers to collaborative problem solving.

  • Opportunities to share your achievements in our “Wall of Awesomeness.”

  • Peer discussions around leadership, wellbeing, and working differently.

  • Time to connect, recharge, and learn from others across sectors.

Why It Matters:

When people keep learning together, ideas don’t just stay in meeting rooms — they ripple out into teams, workplaces, and communities. The Community of Learning keeps that momentum going, supporting a more connected and confident Blackpool.
