Training & Facilitation for Public Sector Teams

Supporting Public Sector Teams to Thrive, Lead and Deliver

Practical Training That Works for the Real World of Public Sector

At lisa jeskins training, we specialise in developing people and teams across the public sector; helping organisations navigate complex challenges, improve collaboration, and deliver better outcomes for the communities they serve.

We understand the unique pressures facing the NHS, local authorities, universities, and libraries, and we design learning experiences that are practical, relevant, and impactful.

We deliver engaging, practical training and facilitation that helps individuals and teams grow, collaborate, and succeed.

What I Can Help Your Organisation With

I partner with public sector organisations to develop their people and strengthen their teams across five key areas:

Workforce development

Building skills, confidence and capability at every level

Service improvement

Equipping teams to identify what's not working and change it

Effective communication

Improving conversations within teams and with the people you serve

Leadership capability

supporting leaders at every stage to lead with clarity and confidence

Team resilience & wellbeing

helping your people stay strong, motivated and connected

Every session is grounded in the realities of public service.

I understand the operational pressures, the limited time, and the genuine commitment your people bring — and I design learning that respects all of that.

Training Programmes

My training is interactive, inclusive, and immediately useful.

I don’t believe in passive learning or sessions that sit forgotten in a folder — everything I deliver is designed to create real, lasting change.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is your training different from standard corporate training?
My training is designed specifically for public sector organisations, not adapted from generic corporate programmes. I understand the realities of working in services like the NHS, local government, education, libraries, and community organisations, so every session is practical, relevant, and grounded in real-world challenges.
Yes. Every programme is tailored to your organisation’s priorities, culture, and challenges. I don’t use off-the-shelf templates. Whether you’re focusing on leadership development, service improvement, communication, or team wellbeing, the learning is designed around what your people actually need.
My sessions are interactive, inclusive, and highly participatory. I believe people learn best when they can reflect, discuss, and apply ideas in a supportive environment, not simply sit through presentations. Participants leave with practical tools and techniques they can use immediately in their roles.
Absolutely. I offer flexible delivery options including in-person workshops, virtual sessions, and blended programmes depending on what works best for your team and organisation.
I work with organisations across the public and community sector, including NHS teams, healthcare providers, universities, libraries, local authorities, and not-for-profit organisations. I support teams at all levels, from frontline staff to senior leaders.
I support organisations with leadership development, team development, communication and collaboration, workforce development, service improvement, resilience and wellbeing, and personal effectiveness. Programmes can be delivered as standalone workshops or longer-term development support.
I hold an ILM Level 7 qualification in Executive Coaching and Mentoring and I’m a member of the EMCC, working to their professional Code of Ethics. Alongside this, I bring extensive experience working with public sector teams and a strong understanding of the pressures and values that shape public service work.
Yes. I often work with organisations that are navigating change, restructuring, service pressures, or new ways of working. My approach helps leaders and teams communicate effectively, stay resilient, and move forward with clarity and confidence.
