LIFT Ireland is a social enterprise initiative dedicated to increasing positive leadership in Ireland. Our trained facilitators conduct weekly roundtable sessions over eight weeks, accommodating approximately six participants. These sessions are specifically designed for pharmacists committed to enhancing their leadership capabilities and fostering a culture of positive leadership within the workplace and the wider pharmacy profession.
Content
Each week (for eight weeks) in the online roundtable sessions, participants will explore a specific leadership value, including Listening, Positive Attitude, Respect, Competence, Determination, Empathy & Understanding, Accountability, and Honesty & Integrity. The roundtable sessions are guided by facilitators using the LIFT approach and format. For more information, you can watch a short introductory video here LIFT Introduction or visit https://liftireland.ie/.
What will It Involve
Each roundtable, of 4-6 people per group, is impartially lead by a certified facilitator. During each session, a roundtable group will read specially assigned material exploring one of the course’s eight leadership values. During a series of subsequent action steps within the session, participants are encouraged to share their opinions in a completely unbiased, non-judgemental environment. The 40 minute round table sessions are designed to allow the space for each member to fully reflect on what specific leadership values mean to them.
If you would like to experience a LIFT Roundtable before committing, you can book a Roundtable through this link www.liftireland.ie/events to see if it’s the right fit for you. Please note that these sessions will not be pharmacist-specific groups, but they will give you a sense of what a Roundtable is like.
