ioda Ltd conducted an interview with Scott Thomas on the TEDx Northern Quarter podcast app.

At ioda, we specialise in delivering bespoke leadership and management training tailored to our clients’ needs. We embed a clear thread of Equality and Diversity (E&D) throughout our programmes to maximise learning impact and drive business improvements. With 29 years of experience across public, private, and voluntary sectors, both nationally and internationally, we bring a wealth of expertise to every programme. As accredited centres for both CMI and ILM, we offer accredited training from First Line Manager to Strategic Manager level. We have developed flagship Inclusive Leaders programmes designed to shape leadership mindsets that consider the impact of behaviour and decision-making on both people and the environment. Using the "Manager as a Coach" approach, these programmes foster strong leadership capabilities while promoting a culture of support and development. Available at Levels 3, 5, and 7, they can also be delivered as part of an Apprenticeship where required. More than just leadership training, our programmes build talent pathways that align with our clients’ vision; supporting organisational growth and preparing leadership teams for a dynamic future. ioda programmes are not just training courses; they are strategic assets that empower leaders to inspire, achieve, and drive cultural and operational excellence. At ioda, we don’t just work with businesses, we become part of your journey. We take a personal interest in your success, living and breathing your business alongside you, because for us, there’s no other way.
