🌍 Preparing future leaders means preparing them to lead sustainable change.

We're proud to be working with Bloomsbury Institute London, the first UK higher education provider approved to deliver CMI's Level 7 Strategic Sustainability Leadership Qualification, alongside the Level 7 Strategic Management and Leadership Practice qualification within its postgraduate Business and Management programmes.

By combining academic excellence with practical leadership development and professional recognition, Bloomsbury is equipping learners with the knowledge, skills and confidence to succeed in a world where sustainability is no longer a choice, it’s a strategic imperative.

As learner Musa Christopher highlights, we need to see sustainability through a practical lens: “Sustainability isn't separate from good operations; it's the same discipline. It's looking at sustainability through the operational lens of reducing waste in every single area.”

🚨 Too many young women are blocked from career progression before they reach the first rung of management.

Our new CMI Women research, in partnership with Young Women's Trust, Girlguiding, and Women@Tech, highlights a frustrating disconnect between ambition and opportunity.

📊 Our research found that 71% of 17 to 21-year-old women aspire to lead, but their potential is routinely stalled by structural barriers, unclear progression pathways and limited managerial support.

To boost UK productivity, we cannot leave talented women on the sidelines.

Leaders and policymakers must think beyond mentorship and offer young women active sponsorship, transparent progression routes, and the opportunity to build confidence through accredited training.

These roles describe behaviour patterns that facilitate team progress by highlighting individual contributions to team dynamics.

What happens when healthcare education looks beyond clinical skills to develop future healthcare leaders? 🏥

Our partner, University of East Anglia is pioneering a new approach to nursing education, by embedding the CMI Level 5 Diploma in Management and Leadership into its BSc Adult, Children’s and Mental Health Nursing programmes. In doing so, they have become the UK’s first university to partner with CMI in this way to deliver nursing education.

From September 2026, students graduate from the BSc programmes with both an accredited nursing degree and a respected leadership qualification from CMI, recognising that nurses are increasingly expected to coordinate teams, contribute to quality improvement and help shape how services are delivered.

As Professor Christopher Burton, Dean of Health Sciences, explains:
"Nursing today is about much more than clinical expertise alone. They are increasingly expected to lead teams, manage services and help shape improvements."

This partnership reflects the growing importance of leadership and management in healthcare to drive service improvements and better patient care, aligning with the recently launched NHS Leadership and Management Framework.

Stay tuned to hear more about our partnership with UEA and how their commitment to great management and leadership directly impacts NHS service delivery.
