We’ve teamed up with Mark Topley to deliver a practical and supportive virtual leadership Bootcamp for Practice Managers who want to move from constant firefighting to confidently leading their team.
What is the Practice Manager Bootcamp?
As a Practice Manager, you’re at the centre of everything – balancing people, patients, principals and operational pressures. When everyone turns to you, it can feel like constant firefighting. If you’re ready to lead with calm, confident control, this is for you.
This five-month leadership Bootcamp will help you to earn trust and respect across your practice. You’ll strengthen how you lead, communicate and manage people, so you can influence upwards, act decisively, and build a team that works with you.
Inside the programme, you’ll build:
- The confidence to lead clearly and handle challenging conversations
- Stronger communication and influence at every level
- Practical systems to manage people in a structured, sustainable way.
What topics will be covered?
Inner Boss Blueprint
Build a grounded leadership identity with habits that reduce overwhelm and strengthen confidence.
Creed & Culture Foundations
Create clear values, expectations, and a resilient team culture that supports great work.
Recruitment, Onboarding & Accountability
Hire the right people, onboard them well, and handle accountability conversations with clarity and care.
Trust, Feedback & Connection
Strengthen trust through better feedback, deeper understanding, and stronger team connection.
Delegation, Growth & Leading Up
Delegate with confidence, develop your team, and manage upwards in a balanced, professional way.
What's included?
- Weekly email nudges to keep you focused and moving forward
- Bite-sized, on-demand video lessons (2–8 minutes) to watch when it suits you
- 45-minute weekly live group calls during lunchtime or evening
- A structured five-month roadmap covering the leadership skills that matter most in practice life
- Lifetime access to all course materials
- Ongoing support from Mark Topley via email or WhatsApp throughout the programme
- 25 hours’ CPD and achieve development outcome B.
Who can join the Bootcamp?
Whether you are new to leadership or have years of experience, this Bootcamp provides strong, practical leadership foundations alongside ongoing support. It is open to anyone in the practice, but ideal for…
- Practice Managers who are competent and committed, but feeling stretched, isolated, or under-supported in their role
- Practice Managers who want greater confidence, clearer decision-making, and the authority to lead their teams effectively
- Lead Nurses or Front-of-House leaders who are stepping into a wider leadership role and want to do so with clarity and assurance.
