Celebrating the Completion of Our Latest Applebridge Group Leadership Development Programme Cohort
In March 2026, we were proud to celebrate the completion of our latest Applebridge Group Leadership Development Programme cohort.
Delivered by Programme Director Les Wicks, the 12-month programme brought together a carefully structured blend of workshops, one-to-one coaching and real-world project delivery. Designed to challenge, support and develop colleagues from across the Applebridge Family, the programme gave each participant the opportunity to build their confidence, strengthen their leadership skills and apply their learning in meaningful ways.
The programme concluded with final presentations to our senior leadership team, giving participants the chance to reflect on their journey, share their experiences and demonstrate the progress they have made over the last year. It was a fantastic way to mark the end of a programme that has once again shown the value of investing in our people and creating opportunities for long-term growth.
We would like to say a huge well done to this year’s cohort:
Adam Lee, Elliot Hadfield, Ryan Mann, Abi Leonard, Tomas McGleenan, Paul Troubridge, Colin Snailham, Antony Sheil, Matt Bentley and Adam Crook.
Each member of the cohort has shown commitment, enthusiasm and a willingness to step outside of their comfort zone throughout the programme. Their hard work and dedication have been evident at every stage, and we are incredibly proud of what they have achieved.
At Applebridge, we know that strong leadership is built over time through experience, reflection and continuous development. That is why programmes like this remain such an important part of how we support our teams, strengthen our business and prepare for the future.
The Applebridge Group Leadership Development Programme continues to play a vital role in building confidence, developing capability and supporting future leaders across the Applebridge Family. As this latest cohort completes the programme, we look forward to seeing how they continue to grow and make a positive impact in their roles.
Congratulations again to everyone involved, and thank you to Les Wicks and our senior leadership team for continuing to support the development of our people.
