About Us

LFB History, Mission and Values

Founded in 2001 and still run by Richard Cresswell, our product range originally consisted of people consultancy, quality assurance consultancy and a highly popular series of 'bite size' value adding management programmes.  In 2002 we decided to grow our product range to include qualifications, so in September of that year we became one of the first Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM) centres in the world.

In 2007 we recognised the value of diversifying into different markets.  So we looked into exporting into mainland Europe and in 2009 we looked to export to countries well outside Europe.  Strategic partnerships have been built over time and we are in a strong position to offer all of our product range globally.

Our target market is 'employers' and over the last few years we have helped well over 750 of them - some of them international private sector concerns, some of them smaller family owned organisations, some of them local government organisations and some of them internationally known charities.  We have also delivered somewhere in the region of £400,000 of European Union funded learning courses.

We see our mission is 'to provide high quality learning, consultancy and developmental products/solutions that will yield  demonstrable client benefits' and to help meet (and where possible exceed client expectations) our values are:

• Never make unrealistic promises.

• Strive for long term working relationships with all clients.

• Be as flexible as possible in terms of where we deliver, when we deliver and how we deliver.

• Work with clients in order to provide products that are based on meeting business objectives.

• Support clients - taking into account their work commitments & priorities.

• Be professional at all times.

• Do the best we can at all times.
