Description:
Enterprise Ireland proposes to engage in a competitive process for the establishment of a framework agreement for the Design and Delivery of Enterprise Ireland’s Leadership for Growth Journey and Management of Associated Leadership Supports. Enterprise Ireland uses a Competency Framework for SMEs based on on-going research of Enterprise Ireland clients learning requirements. The SME Competency Framework sets out the key capability areas required of SMEs to achieve their growth objectives for successful scaling and internationalisation and is anchored in six (6) key business areas (internally referred to as the 6 Pillars of Business Growth): - Leadership/People - Strategy - Strategic Finance - Sales/Marketing - Operations - Innovation A recent evolution to Enterprise Ireland’s Client Engagement and Experience Model has prioritised Leadership/Readiness and Strategy as key drivers for international growth, especially in our scaling clients. Based on the success/impact of the (2006-2023) Leadership for Growth programmes and the continued client need regarding CEO ambition and strategic leadership, Enterprise Ireland is looking to continue the programme and expand support through the establishment of a new framework. A Single Party Framework will enable close partnering with a provider for both the educational services and intensive coaching required on the leadership journey to provide an immersive and impactful learning experience for participants. Modification/re-calibration of design is expected, with the biggest change to current specification being the extension of the Leadership for Growth programme to a leadership journey (henceforth referred to as Leadership for Growth Journey), co-managed by the provider, now involving: • The Leading Edge pre-programme sessions, • The Leadership for Growth programme, and • The Alumni Leaders post-programme network. And additionally, • Internal Enterprise Ireland staff training on e.g., Leadership and Strategy This journey is expected to incorporate, for example, opportunities for blended or asynchronous learning, focus on sustainability and digitalisation/AI as modern considerations for leaders, and maximising peer to peer learning and bonding, with consideration to the post-programme alumni journey, translation of learnings into Enterprise Ireland and potential cross over points with other C-suite programmes. Ex-ante evaluation to ensure business impact and the achievement of associated learning outcomes can be better managed through a single provider. Please see documentation for further details. Applicants should associate themselves with the competition in order to ask and receive queries, access the documents and submit a response. All responses should be submitted in a ZIP-FILE format.
