LEAD Wales

Giving you the skills and tools to grow YOUR business

LEAD Wales is a revolutionary and highly successful training and development programme that equips owner-managers of SMEs to enhance their leadership skills and take their business to the next level.

Between 2010 and 2015, the innovative programme is being made available – without charge - to some 700 SMEs located across North, West Wales and South Wales Valleys areas: a unique opportunity for the entrepreneurs in our economy to increase turnover and profitability, expand their horizons and release the full potential of their staff.

The £8 million programme is being delivered through Swansea University’s School of Business and Economics and Bangor University Business School, and is backed by the Welsh Government and £5 million from the European Social Fund.
