LOCSU creates new coaching programme

LOCSU has announced the launch of a new coaching and mentoring programme for the optical sector.

Aimed primarily at LOC chairs and LOC company clinical governance and performance leads, the scheme offered current leaders new skills and experienced leaders the opportunity to pass down existing skills.

Gill Brabner, LOCSU learning and development consultant, said: ‘There is no better type of learning than from someone who knows the ropes and is in a position to pass those skills on to those starting out on the leadership ladder. That insight is gold dust.

‘LOC officers and Clinical Leads already perform important roles leading the sector and maintaining the governance of services. This programme will help them develop personally and professionally.’
