In addition to meeting the development needs of current(people?) leaders at all levels, we are looking at how we can support those looking for a leadership career or moving through to more senior roles.

Reflecting on our changing culture and the requirements of managers, we have changed our language to describe line-managers as people leaders and established a set of people leadership expectations.

Connect the team's purpose with delivering TfL's vision and values 2. Drive and inspires good performance 3. Create a caring, inclusive, safe and sustainable working environment 4. Collaborate and support others to achieve 5.
